Abstract
A thirty-four page booklet listed as appropriate for the first grade. A Five Cent Edition if one buys at least five booklets! Otherwise one has to pay a whole six cents! There are many monosyllabic words and short sentences here. There is a simple line drawing for each of the fables. The hare here intends to take a nap along the way. In GA, the grasshopper says that he was singing and dancing all summer, and the ant says he can do both all winter. In SW, there is no bet. The wind sees the man and says that he can blow his cloak off. When he fails, the sun says I can make him take it off, and the wind answers Let me see you do it. I think any first-grader will see through that story! Also included: CP, FC, BC, The Fox and the Lion, The Dove and the Bee, BW, DS, LM, FG, The Kid and the Wolf, and The Fox and the Cat. The booklet is in delicate condition.
