Abstract
-
en_US
Each of eight fables gets either a page or a two-page spread in this fragile ephemeral album made for children. Its covers are lacking. I presume that this is the album that started the series which grew to at least four. The T of C for this volume occurs on its title-page. This page features a country scene in which many fables are presented together. I recognize immediately OR and 2P. As is true in Volumes 2 and 4 of the series, I need to read the individual stories inside before I can place the many characters here. Among the stories are LM; AD; GA; and "The Cat, Weasel and Rabbit." Particularly strong in presentation are the explosion in 2P and the anthropomorphosis of the tree in OR. The mouse in "The Rooster, the Cat, and the Mouse" encounters the two new beasts on the platform of a train station. He runs back home with his suitcase. The jay that borrowed feathers ends up homeless, sitting under a bridge along the river. Fox and his readers had fun here! Two staples. 10½" x 8".
