Abstract
As the seller points out, this book is in the style of the Little Golden Books. It is a sturdy book 6 ¾ x almost 8 with 24 pages. It tells ten of La Fontaine's fables and illustrates them each with about two helpful colored pictures. Among my favorite illustrations are those of the dying laborer in his bed (6), the splay-legged lamb drinking in front of the wolf (8), and Grippeminaud the cat looking out of the corner of his eye at his two unsuspecting victims (17). One finds the illustrator's name only on the back cover's list of illustrators for the whole series of thirty books. This is my second book from Monte-Carlo. The first is a 1956 remake of Julien Macho's work of 1489 from Lyon.
