Abstract
A large-format book on cheap paper with sixteen previous copyrights mentioned on its T of C page. There are two fables in here, both with lively, pleasant colored drawings. I only wish I knew which of the three illustrators was the artist for the two fables. TMCM (45) features a female country mouse and a male town mouse. There is a good deal of effort called for and put in in the country: soup and bread are made; there is a tunnel to get through; this house, by comparison with that in the city, is both small and dark. The cook, two dogs, and a cat respectively cause three interruptions. In TH (202), the hare calls the tortoise a talking stone. The straight course set for them includes swimming a brook. The hare wakes up once, mistakenly looks behind him for the tortoise, and goes back to sleep. The book apparently bears no relation to the two earlier books of the same title done by Whitman in 1944/48 and in 1947.
