Abstract
There are already copies of the first and second printing of this book in the collection. This third printing now identifies itself on the back cover of its dust-jacket as a Morrow Eagle Library Edition. A bar code is added to the back-cover of the dust-jacket and a design of black squares above Morrow on the spine of the dust-jacket. As I wrote of the 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.
