Abstract
-
en_US
Sixteen heavy pages fully illustrated in color. 10" x 10¾". Several of the artist's images here are among the best I have seen at presenting a plausible picture of how a donkey in a lion's skin might frighten people. In this version, hunters had let the skin out in the sun to dry. The version seems to me careless in that the story gets close to its end before we learn that this donkey belongs to the washerman, who beats the animal mercilessly when the ploy is discovered. The fox had called the donkey names previously, and so the donkey has a special stake in vindicating himself. He thus tries to roar to scare the fox. That "roar" gives him away. Originally printed in 2015.
