Abstract
This is the Hebrew version of Usborne's book of 2008. It is unclear whether this Hebrew version was first published in 2008 or 2010; this printing is 2010. It appears that some of the latter stories in the 93-page original are dropped in this 80-page book. There are still recognizable fables here, among them "Brer Rabbit and the Tug of War" (18). "How Bear Lost His Tail" (24) features the usual ice-fishing trick and one of the book's most brilliant pictures: bear covered with snow while his tail is locked into the frozen hole (27). LM (29) has nice touches like the mouse sliding down the lion's face until he is perched on the lion's nose. Two more fables are "The Monkey and the Crocodile" (34) and GA (59). The latter is particularly well illustrated. I could make out enough of the Hebrew to see that, as in the English original, this grasshopper learns his lesson!
