Abstract
-
en_US
Here is one member of a colorful series of books with, apparently, wide representation on Youtube and elsewhere – but unfortunately not easily available in the USA. Besides TMCM, this volume contains simple, spirited presentations of "Las Moscas y la Miel"; "La Zorra y la Pantera"; and "La Rana Médica." TMCM involves a lake and a palace. A "miau" interrupts the palatial feast, just as a two-page illustration of a cat punctuates the book (6-7). The country mouse cries upon returning home, not sad but rather appreciating what he has. The flies let themselves get stuck to the honey and pay for it with their lives. The third story seems new to me, or at least to employ new characters for a traditional moral. A parrot with a hurt wing needs help to get up to its nest. He asks a panther who is busy admiring his image in some water, and the panther refuses. A fox helps the parrot. Soon enough King Lion holds an assembly to offer a prize for beauty, and the panther expects to receive it but is surprised that the beauty in question here is inner beauty. The fox is rewarded for helping the parrot. The frog proclaiming to be a doctor has promoted herself in all sorts of ways for a long time. Her own wounded foot, noted by a cicada, is her undoing. Every one of the added morals emphasizes humility. The images seem computer generated.
