Abstract
See my comment on the hardbound version, which I found just after I had ordered this book from Barnes and Noble on the web: Part 1, Little Mouse, opens with two great two-page spreads: Big Lion and Big Trouble. There is a good laughing lion on 11. Part 2 starts with Big Lion. Big net. When you turn the page, you find Big, big trouble! The final two-page spread of the lion carrying the mouse on his head into the sunset is splendid. This little book has perhaps the boldest moral I have seen for this fable: Always help others. Perhaps the poorest illustration is the squinting one on the cover! I found this hardbound version shortly after I had ordered the paperbound version from Barnes and Noble.
