Abstract
This book smells like an antiquarian bookshop! The illustrations are simple, lively, colorful, and varied in style. Often there is a nice monochrome symbol in the upper right echoing the colored illustration on the left. I have seldom seen such fun in the battle of the birds against the beasts (6-7)! The ants in GA (25-7) deal in refined food! A Protestant minister chides the pair of riders in MSA (48). The story on 52 is new to me: a bossy, selfish monkey sits on a porcupine and pays for it! There are two good illustrations for TMCM (63-5). Five images tell the story of SS well (68-71). There is a T of C at the book's front (which would be the back of the book in the West). One of many lovely finds in Tokyo!
