Abstract
Here are forty-three lively fables, each with a full-page black-and-white illustration. Most of them seemed to be based on La Fontaine's fables but then to take the cartoonist/journalist's own twisted path. Thus in FC, the old crow kills itself and drops down dead trying to live up to the fox's praise (8-9). The fox helped up a tree by the goat gets left there in a fork of the branches (16-18). The old cat is fooling the mice by claiming blindness--until a dog shows up and everybody escapes quickly (20-21). I enjoy the wit here. I cannot find a way to date this book.
