Abstract
The presentation of the nineteen fables in this little book for young children serves only to indicate that Europeans can make the same mistake we do of making fables cute. Here characters that are about to attack and eat each other smile first in cuddly fashion. I think La Fontaine himself would be disappointed at the false impression which such illustrations give children. Perhaps the best of the illustrations are those for The Oak and the Reed near the middle of the book.
