Abstract
The special feature of this book is that it contains a music box: Gira la manivela y escucha is written around the semi-circle cut out of the opening side of the book, and inside this cut out portion is a crank to turn the music box. Eleven fables are narrated on thick pages, two pages to a fable. They contain standard popular Aesopic fables: BC; GA; The Swan and the Crow; FG; TMCM; BW; MM; DS; The Cherry; and El Mate. The Cherry involves a boy eating cherries and mocking an old man who plants cherries; he comes back years later to find a large fruit-bearing cherry tree and repents his foolish insults. El Mate tells of God's gift of mate to human beings, apparently to console them over the loss of their children. Strangely, LM is pictured on the front of this book but does not appear in the inside! Something went wrong perhaps between artist and edidtor…. The tune played by the music box is Mary Had a Little Lamb.
