Abstract

en_US
This is an expanded edition of a book that appeared first from the Georg Bitter Verlag, Recklinghausen, under the title Ein Fuchs fährt nach America. This simple paperback collection identifies its one hundred fables by nation or author in its opening T of C but not along the way. There are many good fables here. The back cover points readers to one: Bereits vor 5000 Jahren schrieb ein Schuler in Sumer eine Fabel auf eine Tontafel. It is the story of the wolf who captures a goat. Let me go, the goat says, and I will get you a lamb tomorrow. Okay, but what is your name? The wolf is powerful. The next day the wolf comes and asks for his lamb but gets no answer. Is not your name 'The wolf is powerful'? No, that was my name yesterday. Today my name is 'The wolf is stupid'! (38). An illiterate woman came to the letter-writer and asked him to write a letter right away. I cannot. My foot hurts. Do you write with your foot? No, I write so poorly that I have to deliver my letters myself! (23). A snail crept along onto a mirror and was pleased to see how pretty she was. Soon she crept with her slime around enough of the mirror that she could no longer see herself in it (29). I am surprised at how many of these traditional fables I know! About every fifth or sixth fable gets a black-and-white illustration.
