Abstract
This paperback book of some 98 pages builds off of a 1982 effort by the same authors, Fables by Aesop. That was a large-format (8½ x 11) classroom book of 65 pages that matched each of ten Aesopic fables with an application story. It offered vocabulary, study questions, and evaluation. Each of the fables had a substantial illustration. This book is smaller in format, has less complex material, and offers simpler, smaller illustrations. It matches each of thirty fables with an immediate application story. Both the fables and the application stories that are taken over from the earlier volume are further developed. The illustrations here seem often to be clip art objects brought together rather than illustrations created for this particular story. After each fable there is not only a moral but a section that begins The moral means. Dormac moved in the meantime from Beaverton to San Diego. I am a little surprised that this book has eluded me until now.
