Aesop's Fables: a Pop-Up Book

Abstract

Here is the English version, attributed to Aesop, of a French version from the same year that is attributed to La Fontaine and published by Cerise Bleue: Les Fables de La Fontaine animees (Pop-up). As I wrote there, the designs seemed to me somehow familiar when I noticed that the concept belongs to Claire Littlejohn and Manth. The seven fables offered here are TH, L'Ours et les Abeilles, FG, Le Loup déguisé en Agneau, GA, DS, and LM. The best paper constructions might be the first two. The seven are listed on the back cover.
