The Animals Could Talk
(August House Audio, 1994)
A beautiful tape, to which I was first alerted by Linda Ohri. Excellent music and story-telling. The music sometimes moves easily into and out of normal speech. The booklet features simple line-drawings; its stories are ...
Aesop's Fables in Words of One Syllable
(James Miller, 1879)
This book largely replicates the first edition of Godolphin's book by James Miller in 1869. See my comments there. Some things have changed. Miller's address has changed from 647 to 799 Broadway. The cover has changed ...
Aesop's Movie Fables: Cartoons, Stories, Song, Laughs, Morals, Fun, Movie Flips
(Sonnet Publishing Co., 1931)
Pages 9-10 of 16 are missing in this large-format three-color delight with some illustration on all but one page and a full-page illustration on the front and back covers, the inside-back cover, and 1, 8, and 13. I do not ...
Aesop's Fables in Words of One Syllable
(James Miller Publisher,, 1869)
At long last I have worked my way back to a first edition of this important book. It is inscribed in 1879. I believe I have the book as done now by six different publishers. Blue cloth with gilt, including a lovely ...
Aesop's Fables
(Thomas Nelson and Sons LimitedThomas Nelson and Sons Ltd., 1955)
This is a lovely little softbound book in card wrappers. I am surprised I had not seen it before. Its first nice feature comes on the endpapers. Each animal is involved with this very book in a way appropriate to one ...
Aesop's Fables
(Thomas Nelson and Sons Ltd., 1955)
See my comments on the softbound copy I found a few months earlier. This hardbound copy seems identical except that the cover background is less grey and more aqua to green. The book happens to smell as though it has ...
Molitor Filiusque cum Asello Suo
(Whittlesey House: McGraw-Hill Book Co., 1962)
I did not suspect the existence of this book and found it by chance on the Foreign Language shelf of the children's section in the library's bookstore. What a find! Goodwin Beach's Latin is fine. I may even try it with ...
Three Aesop Fox Fables
(Clarion Books: Houghton Mifflin, 1971)
I immediately presumed that this book was a copy of one I already had. It turns out that I have several copies of the Weekly Reader printing and a paperback of this version but never had this hardbound source for the ...
Aesop's Fables
(Picture Book Studio, 1989)
Another victory for Neugebauer. A wonderful book. Zwerger's twelve ink-and-wash illustrations are witty and delightful. The best illustration features the camel dancing and the animals laughing. Other good illustrations ...
50 Aesop's Fables for Children
(Create SpaceNew Events Group, 2008)
This mid-sized edition (7 x 10) takes the art and stories of The Aesop for Children -- simple enough for a child to understand; deep enough to challenge an adult, as the front-cover says. The pictures are surprisingly ...
