Abstract
-
en_US
Here is, apparently, an earlier edition of a book that this collection has in a smaller edition in 1967. That is, this book has four fables, not three. The addition is the fable identified on the front cover: FC. A curious fact is that the listing on the title-page follows this order: TT, MM, FC, and "Le Renard et le Bouc." The actual order of fables in the book is FC, MM, TT, and "Le Renard et le Bouc." The La Fontaine text is unchanged. As with all of Simon's work, the illustrations are simple and lively. I can never be sure that I have found all the books included in this series! Perhaps the cutest illustration is that of the turtle standing on two legs with suitcase and valise in her hands and a scarf around her head. The final illustration of the abandoned goat in the well is also excellent.
