Abstract

There is just one fable in this first reader. FG (37) is presented as a dialogue between Rabbit and Fox. Though the version is standard, the illustrations are suggestive. After a good large first illustration, there is a small one of birds holding grapes. The fox says at the end Let the birds eat them. There is a last little three-color illustration of the rabbit waving his handkerchief at the fox, perhaps in derision? See my comments on the second reader in the series, published in the same year and containing six fables. I also have a copy, under 1916/23, of the third reader by Holton and Curry, done specifically in the California State Series. This book is in very good condition.
