Abstract
This large-format book of 192 pages to read and 32 to color seemed familiar in its artistic approach. Sure enough, I have some twelve different books with his work, Greek, Italian, Spanish, and English. The art is big, colorful and lively. In this volume, one finds eight Aesopic fables after four other stories. In TH, the hare knocks the tortoise over. In FC, the crow steals the cheese from a mouse and the fox shares the cheese with the mouse. FS is spread out in its telling; each story here gets sixteen pages, and that extent stretches this simple fable! In LM, the house hits the lion with a pea-shooter! The ants find the grasshopper in GA and carry him into their nest. He revives and plays for them. The fox tries to use a tree as a catapult in FG! In TMCM, the town mouse uses a knife and form to eat corn on the cob. BC has an unusual moral, something like Between saying and doing there is half an ocean. Animals here are finely dressed. The stories are listed in order on the book's back cover. This book has no internal title-page and little bibliographical information. The last 32 pages are heavy line drawings suitable for crayon coloring. The illustrations are all full-page in scope. They are arranged so that there is an open area for a few lines of prose text on each.
