Abstract
-
en_US
The endpapers for all four volumes in this set contain the same four designs, one for each book's title-story. This volume contains GGE, BC, MSA, and BF. The couple in GGE spend all their profits immediately after getting each egg; as a result, they are poor again as soon as they kill the goose. In MSA there is no Miller rides section; the donkey kicks free of the pole and runs away. There is no reference to a bridge or river. Colorful full-page illustrations in this medium-sized book (slightly over 5 x 8), perhaps done with acrylics. There is something primitive in the illustrations. The best include the angry, disappointed wife in GGE and the pince-nezed elder mouse in BC.
