Abstract

There are about forty fables, generally in two-page spreads, in this large children's book. The images look suspiciously familiar. There seems to be a first page missing; that page might have given more details about the artists. I would have guessed that the images are computer-generated. There is an AI index at the end, headed by a famililar image of the two ducks without their talkative friend. Texts are overlaid onto images in transparent rectangles. Most drastic of the images might be that of the father owl returning to his nest as the eagle flies away. What the father sees left of his children is their claws (18-19). All three faces are well done as the eagle swoops down on the rat tied to the frog (32-33). In CJ, the rooster is selling the jewel to a shopkeeper (48-49); might that image be mixing the two stories?
