Abstract
Here is a very large pamphlet of sixteen pages remarkable for its slick bright illustrations. Included are: The Ass Who Drank Nothing But Dew; The Ass and the Wolf; The Ass, the Rooster, and the Lion; and The Goat and the Ass. The ass of the first story gets medical attention from the other animals and recovers but has to renounce singing. The second is the traditional story of a kick prompted by medical needs. There is a classic view, as the wolf is getting ready to take care of the sick ass's paw, of some mushroom houses and a bench on which some insect is reading a newspaper. The illustration of the ass overwhelmed by the lion is another strong effort. The whole animal world turns out, including several ambulance mice with oxygen for the half-dead ass. Every scene has a lively contingent of small animals somehow involved. This pamphlet is in a series, from which I have four other volumes. Like them, it has simple questions on the inside of the back cover. The back cover itself lists the fifty books in the series. By contrast with the dog volume, in which only one of the four stories has anything to do with a dog, all four of this book's stories are about asses.
