Abstract
Not to be confused with Forest Fables by Norm Lynch, published in 1973 by the Standard Publishing Company. That was a 16-page landscape-formatted Christian Comic book. This is a 36-page pamphlet offering five fables with line drawings covering part or all of some of the pages. These original fables make their points well. Badger puts off resewing a button onto her coat; eventually she has to replace all nine buttons because she has lost the loose one. A deer tests the grass on the other side of the river and finds that it is not greener. It is as though the author started in each story from a well-known proverb and then worked out a story to exemplify it. Raccoon helps beaver out with a book on dams: two heads are better than one. The printer of this book seems to have had trouble leaving margins and/or centering print on the pages.
