Abstract
Here is a very colorful children's book. It is good to see a book like this coming out of Russia! The book gives each of nineteen fables a two-page spread, with text surrounded by a colored illustration that often includes two phases of the fable's plot. The succession starts off with lively presentations of GA; FC; The Swan, the Lobster, and the Pike; and Quartet. This monkey apparently does nothing but drop successive pairs of spectacles onto his tail! Some of the animals and insects end up looking as though they came out of a Star Wars bar scene, like the termites that have eaten a tree out from under a monkey. The nurse crane called in to remove the bone from the wolf's throat looks down in wonder at a groaning board of many different roasts. This is an enjoyable book for kids.
