Abstract
-
en_US
Sixty-two fables with four colored full-page illustrations and numerous black-and-white illustrations. This small book (5¼ x 6¾) has seven children dancing in silhouette across its green rag hard cover. The best of the black-and-white illustrations along the way include OF (16) with a weeping frog near a tombstone proclaiming Here lies the frog who would be as big as an ox. Other good etchings show the miller returning home with his son (37) and the wolf standing over the dead lamb (56). I have seen before the colored picture of the fox weeping while the stork eats from the vase (96). The last black-and-white image accompanying The end is of a broken egg, while the last story is that of Mercury and the Woodman. I do not understand. T of C at the beginning.
