Abstract
-
en_US
Here is a very large pamphlet of sixteen pages remarkable for its slick bright illustrations. Jupiter on the cover looks as though he has just kicked a field-goal! Included are The Fox and the Monkey, The Ass and the Dog, The Shepherd and the Wild Goats, FK, The Fox and the Woodsman, and The Dog and the Wolf. The latter, I believe, is the story in which the dog is able to tell the wolf that he will be fatter after his master's upcoming banquet. The art work is lively and colorful, but has trouble sustaining a single style. At least one work is signed something like Pescador. I enjoy the nice touches away from the focus of a given illustration, as when a bird reads something in the tree above the man favoring his dog over his donkey. Many of the trees have faces. There are questions on the inside of the back cover, like Who wrote these fables? The back cover itself lists the fifty books in the series.
