The Fables of Aesop
(Quality Paperback Book Club, 1995)
This is a curious little treasure. It starts with a nostalgic cover of a fox looking up at a crow, a rooster strutting among hens, and a deer looking at his reflection in the water. But what is a mouse doing under another ...
The Fables of Aesop
(Book-of-the-Month Club, 1995)
Identical with the adjacent listing from QPBC except that there is here no color in the cover. The book changes the publisher on the title-page and its reverse, moves the back-cover paragraph to the front flyleaf, adds a ...
Aesop's Fables: A Collection of Tales for Children.
(Bookmart Limited, 1995)
Large-format book presenting sixteen fables in strong colors in a variety of sizes and shapes. The frontispiece of FG gives a sense of the artist's flair for color and delight in minute rendering of elements like fur. ...
The Hidden Picture Book of Aesop's Fables.
(Boyds Mills PressDistributed by St. Martin's Press, 1995)
It is high time that a good hidden-picture book of the fables appear. This one is good! Thirteen well-told fables, each with a full-page illustration cleverly hiding perhaps a dozen objects. I find the art well done. ...
Aesop's Fables
(Distributed by Random House Value Pub., 1995)
This edition is smaller in page-size than Santore's 1988 edition. It presents not the twenty-four fables that each received a lavish illustration there, but rather eighty-two fables. Some of these are not illustrated at ...

Fables d'Ésope 2: Les Hommes

Aesop's Fables: The Hare and the Tortoise and The Travelers and the Bear
(Modern Publishing: Unisystems, Inc., 1995)
Here is a new presentation of the same art that Hirata used in 1989 for his Joie set. The art here is certainly superior in presentation to the Peter Haddock series (1989?). It is darker than Joie's art, sometimes stronger ...
