Abstract

The excellent small illustrations caught my eye in this lovely little book, starting with the detail of GA on the cover: a dog faces a cold young woman with long blond hair and a guitar strung over her back. The fuller version faces 32 near the end of the booklet. MM faces 9. Is that L'Hirondelle et les petites Oiseaux facing 16? (I had thought it might be The Mosquito and the Coach). There are thirteen texts here, and MM is not one of them! Nor is The Mosquito and the Coach. There are advertisements at the back. The booklet came with three others in the series, on le bonheur, le patriotisme, and la gourmandise. The first of these, written by Figuière himself and embellished with nice art, lists a catalogue of eleven books in this series.
