Abstract
The endpapers for all four volumes in this set contain the same four designs, one for each book's title-story. This volume contains FG, GA, DS, and WSC. This may be the first fox I have heard saying that the grapes are both sour and tough (11). The grasshopper wears great flower-petal-clothes (12)! This medium-sized book slightly over 5 x 8 varies between smaller and full-page illustrations, perhaps done with acrylics. The primitive approach to fable art may be least successful in this book. Its best illustration may be that for DS on 16-17. The artist also takes a plausible approach to picturing the wolf in sheep's clothing (19).
