Abstract

en_US I seem now to have three of this series. See also Royal Feast and Dinner for Two,both catalogued under 1988. Like the others, this pamphlet of 16 pages is based on the animated TV series. Photographs of the characters in action are well done. The chief characters here are Brixton the rabbit, the Tar Baby, Herman the bear, and Fox. Before they boil Brixton in the pot, he begs that they not throw him among the thorny bushes. After they fall for it, Fox at home in an easy chair reflects on the day's events: Well, I suppose I've learned something. If you try to harm others, you end up looking a fool. The last few pages show a child how to make either Fox or Brixton out of clay. The best scenes, I believe, are the cover's scene of a Brixton thoroughly stuck all over to the Tar Baby, and Brixton's clever plea from the pot not to be thrown into the thorny bushes. Brixton has flesh-colored hands that underscore his human trickiness. Herman and Fox have hands too, but theirs are not flesh-colored.
