Abstract
Here, as promised, are forty one-page black-and-white cartoon presentations of Aesopic fables in five, six, or seven panels each. This little book acknowledges as its source Chambry's Greek and French translation. There is a T of C at the beginning and an AI at the end. The fables are numbered. Thil handles the fables well for the space limitations of his medium. GA advertises plural ants and advises foresight (13). The Tortoise and the Eagle is handled well: the eagle's pique is nicely motivated and quickly expressed (14). TH is cleverly motivated when the hare says C'est moi le plus rapide! and the tortoise asks in response Et si c'était moi? (15). Thil as artist does a good job, e.g., with the fat chicken on 18. As text-writer, he has a gift for pithy morals, as in the story of the ass who goes through several masters: Les nouveaux ma?tres font souvent regretter les anciens! (24). Google has not yet heard of Stella Junior. Print on demand is growing. Here is a French book produced in the USA the day it was ordered.
