Abstract
Here is a second printing of this book signed by Tom Paxton. The collection already included a first printing. This is my idea of what a contemporary book of Aesop's fables should be: witty stories (here in verse) with well executed and witty pictures. The fox (with the grapes), the sick lion, and the goose-slayer all have great expressions. Notice the apparent imitation of Gheeraerts in the netted lion. Excellent! Paxton is a writer of popular songs.
