Abstract
This sturdy and engaging book gives Spanish reading children a great prose introduction to twenty of La Fontaine's best known fables with clear and specific morals. The migrant wolf on the cover makes a good symbol for the book; I would not immediately have recognized him as coming from DW, but he represents that wolf well, as does the picture of him in flight on 25. Here, as generally, Susaeta is cute and engaging. TMCM gets shaped up in unique fashion. A whole mouse family lives in the city, with only an uncle still living out of town. A nephew telephones this uncle and invites him to join the whole family for a city feast. There is on 35 a great image of the uncle hustling away with his cane and suitcase. González here takes a good approach to presenting the cat as a sack of grain just outside of the mouse hole (46). The frantic pig who senses that he is going to give more than milk or wool is delightfully portrayed (58-61). Well done!
