Check two copies in the collection: 12251 and 12252. Find the following text under Simon Hachette Hebrew in "2022" under "Aesopica."|This oversized (8½" x 12") paperbound book of some 32 pages seems to be a slightly smaller-format Hebrew version of Hachette's book first published in 1953, with reprintings in various series in our collection in 1966, 1969, 1970, 1973, and 1983.|My, Romain Simon illustrated many different books! This is a 28-page oversized (9" x 12½") children's book. There are eleven fables in all, each allotted one to three pages. At least five of them are included somehow in the endpieces at both ends of the book. The stories include GA, FC, FG, LM, TMCM, TH, MM, "The Fox and the Goat," WL, FS, and TT. Each story gets from one to three pages. Has the lively, skipping rabbit appeared in Simon's work before? The scarf and shawl on the tortoise make me think I have seen these characters before! This book once belonged to the Shelter Island Elementary School.|Here is the Hebrew version of one of many books Romain Simon illustrated, this one published originally in 1953. Our collection has three later printings of that French original, one in the year of this book's printing. This is a 28-page oversized (8½" x 11¾") children's book. There are eleven fables in all, each allotted one to three pages. At least five of them are included somehow in the endpieces at both ends of the book. The stories include GA, FC, FG, LM, TMCM, TH, MM, "The Fox and the Goat," WL, FS, and TT. Has the lively, skipping rabbit appeared in Simon's work before? The scarf and shawl on the tortoise make me think I have seen these characters before!
