Abstract

en_US
Here is one of those many books the French keep creating for their young people to get acquainted with fables. This is a step up from many of them in several regards. It includes original illustrations, including an excellent colored illustration of TH for its cover. My favorite among the full-page black-and-white illustrations has a human with a fox's head standing on top of the head of a human goat in the middle of a well (98). Another fine piece shows the retired rat with a huge belly reclining against a Swiss cheese (62). This book further gathers its fables into six good categories: Flatteurs et hypocrites; Affamés et gloutons; Sots et orgueilleux; Animaux en guerre; Bons et mauvais conseillers; and Femmes et fables. Finally it adds a delightful Carnet de lecture, a notebook with a particularly helpful last section. The earlier sections of this carnet cover La Fontaine; fable; what we can learn from La Fontaine's fables; and the picture of animals that the fables offer. The last section is Une fable à travers les âges (135). It offers multiple versions of GA: Aesop; Raymond Queneau; Pierre Perret; and Francoise Sagan. Good stuff!
