- Abstract
- en_US Some detective work unearthed the source of this oversized (9½" x 12¾") Hebrew book: the 2003 edition illustrated by Christian Vandendaele and published by Editions Caramel in Belgium, whose copyright is acknowledged on the back cover. Like its French source, this 94-page book for children has lively illustrations done with a kind of slick art. There are forty-five of La Fontaine's fables here, each with a two-page presentation. A curious feature of this book is the way in which each overlaid window with text on it does not obscure the underlying background scene. A particularly good touch comes with "The Eagle and the Owl" on 18-19, where the owl comes home to discover only the claws of his young owls left after the eagle has eaten the rest of them. Enjoy the facial expressions on all three main characters in FM on 32-33. There is a T of C at the end. The back cover seems to suggest a companion volume. Its cover features OF, FC and "The Coach and the Fly."
