Abstract
Now I have found this book from six different countries! Other versions come from England (1988), France (1989?), Italy (1989/92), the United States (1990), and Canada (1990?). The format remains very consistent. For example, there is a banner over the cover illustration and over the T of C. Here it proclaims Egkyklopaideia ton Paramythion, Biblio 3. And this T of C occurs again before the title-page. There is no mention here, as there is in the French and Italian versions, of La Fontaine. Nor is there mention here of the original editor, Peter Holeinone, or of Dami, who seems to hold the original copyright. The back cover adds a design of motifs from children's literature around the usual listing of titles in the series. Otherwise the book seems exactly like the five from other countries, right down to the page-numbering. The best of the delightful illustrations include the title page of the cat-grandma reading to the mice children, the fattened weasel getting caught in the narrow passage through which he entered (notice the burst trouser-button, 23), the GA illustrations (30-31), and the obstinate goats meeting on a narrow bridge (43).
