Abstract

This is an unusual series of four books within the larger series Collection Tante Laura. Each book is about 7 square. The covers are stiff; at first I thought that each book was meant to house a 45 rpm record. In this third volume one finds eight fables on twelve pages; they are listed on the front cover. The first fable -- The Hare and the Frogs -- has its illustrations only on the front cover; The Monkey and the Leopard has its illustration on the back cover. The Pig, the Goat, and the Lamb has no illustration at all. The other five receive illustrations: The Farmer and the Serpent; FG (integrated with its text on one page); La Besace; BC; and GGE. This last remains a strong illustration, picturing frustration and disappointment. As in the two earlier volumes, both published in 1959, illustrations in the first half of the book occur on left-hand pages, and those in the second half occur on right-hand pages. As always with Pellerin, the colors are exquisite. There are various styles within Pellerin's approach to illustration.
