Abstract
This is a highly colorful die-cut pamphlet about 3⅜" x 6", the first of a group of seven more Nilsson pamphlets to be added to our singleton acquisition of four years ago. We seem to have four to go to complete the collection! Its two outside covers are images taken in front of and behind the initial meeting of the two main characters. There are again three two-color illustrations inside this one-staple pamphlet of some 12 pages. The centerfold is another lovely piece of art work. It has the frog declaring her intent to become as big as the ox. This pamphlet again offers a prose expansion of La Fontaine's fable. The deceased frog in the final image is not as grotesque as often. On the last page, one finds La Fontaine's verse text. Lovely work!
