This little book brims with questions. First, do I not recognize these covers of a boy and girl, respectively, reading? Next, how does this text expand the usual set of texts derived from Rundell (sometimes labelled J.B.R.) from its usual 401 to the 426 fables here? Comparing the book with others in the tradition is difficult because a page is missing, and I believe it (143-44) is an especially important one, because it begins the second part of the book. It includes, e.g., the beginning of The Hare and Many Friends. Even the book's subtitle is slightly different here, perhaps since there are no illustrations, for the usual subtitle is With texts based chiefly upon.... One work that seems new by comparison with others in this tradition is Hodge and Raven (171) in verse. T of C at the front, numbered in tens by a previous owner.
