The Fables of Aesop and La Fontaine.
(Duell, Sloan and Pearce, affiliate of Meredith Press, 1958)
A wonderful find sitting out on the table waiting for me! Excellent condition. Nineteen fables with witty and exuberant watercolors, many featuring cute insects having fun around the central action. The best illustration ...
Train de Fables de La Fontaine, Florian, Franc-Nohain, Samivel.
(L'Imprimerie Artistique en Couleurs, 1947)
A curious and delightful book, starting from the cartoon end-papers in mint, black, and white, depicting all sorts of nonsense situations, like a man fishing from a boat with his line resting on dry land. Are those the ...
A Child's Version of Aesop's Fables
(Ginn & Co., 1904)
This copy of Stickney's book is a duplicate of the 1904 Ginn edition, with three exceptions that I can find. First, Ginn is located now in Boston, New York, Chicago, and London. Secondly, this copy is not dated. Thirdly, ...
A Child's Version of Aesop's Fables
(Ginn & Company Publishers, 1904)
This seems to be an exact reprinting of the 1891 version, of which I have a copy. As I mention there, various people worked on the text, and the illustrations seem to be from Doré, Weir, and a certain F. Myrick (?). Let ...
Favole di Animali
(Dami Editore, 1987)
A lovely gift. The book uses the illustrations from El Arca de las Fabulas (1983), but unfortunately converts the beautiful colored illustrations to simple black for the gold paper here. The wordless two mules of the ...
Tesoro de Fábulas: Esopo, La Fontaine, Samaniego, Iriarte y Otros
(Fernández Editores, 1991)
As the T of C at the back shows, this paperback includes thirty fables from Aesop, eight from the Panchatantra, three from Phaedrus, thirty-two from La Fontaine, fourteen from Samaniego, twenty from Iriarte, six from ...
A Child's Version of Aesop's Fables
(Ginn and Co., 1894)
This seems to be an exact reprinting of the 1891 version, of which I have a copy. It seems also identical with the 1904 version, of which I also have a copy. Was the series' name in those versions "Classics for Children" ...
Fables in Verse Inspired by Aesop and La Fontaine
(Writers Club PressiUniverse.com Inc.,, 2000)
The author's preface is quite straightforward. He wants to present his own version of already famous fables. He wants to convey them in a manner that is enjoyable and at times humorous. He hopes readers will enjoy his ...
A Child's Version of Aesop's Fables
(Ginn & Company Publishers,, 1891)
A pleasant little book, well used. Various people worked on the text, and the illustrations seem to be from Doré, Weir, and a certain F. Myrick (?). I enjoy several, e.g., FS (46).
Les Plus Belles Fables d'Animaux
(Deux Coqs d'Or Éditeur, 1982)
This book looked very familiar. A little investigation has shown why. The illustrations are also used in El arca de las Fabulas by Sigmar in 1983. The source for both that work and this was done in 1979 by Falcon Books ...
