Abstract
-
en_US
Less scholarly than Animal Crackers (1983) but more extensive and colorful. There is one outrageous goof on 234, which mistakes Gregor Mendel for Gregor Samsa! There is lots of good Aesop here: BC (3); DM (22); MM (35); GGE (50); DLS (68); FC and FG (116); putting on a lion's skin, LS, LM, and AL (121-4); TH (139); the nurse throwing a baby to the wolf (identified as in thirty-six Aesopic fables), the wolf in sheep's clothing, crying Wolf! (155); the nightingale and the hawk (163); the jay in peacock feathers (196); FK, the frog and the rat, OF (differently told: the ox steps on the frog after it swells; there is no explosion, 207); nourishing a snake in one's bosom (215); and TH again (220).
