Abstract

A delightful book in three sections. The last two sections tell Joha stories and give isolated proverbs: both seem good and lively. The first section mixes fables and anecdotes of good humor, frequently salty. There are several that I do not get. I find nine Aesopic fables in the group, four illustrated: The Astrologer and the Well (25), WC (44), The Goat on the Roof and the Wolf (49), and The Cat as Judge (53). Two fables are told in unusual form: The Camel, the Salt, and the Wool (31) and 2W (103; the man loses his beard!). Other fables include The Lion, the Wolf, and the Fox (19), BC (48), and The Lioness (77). The illustrations are simple.
