La Tortuga y la Liebre: Una Fábula de Esopo: The Tortoise and the Hare: An Aesop's Fable
(Frances Lincoln Children's BooksFrances Lincoln Limited, 2001)
This is my third bilingual presentation of this fable by the same people, along with one just in English. The other two combine English with French and Polish respectively. This is a landscape-formatted, unpaginated, ...

Four Fables from Aesop
(The Hayloft Press, 2001)

Aesop's Fables: The Hare and the Tortoise and Other Animal Stories
(Bloomsbury Children's BooksBloomsbury Publishing Plc, 2000)
Apparently identical with a hardbound version from 1999. Eighteen fables in an oversized version for the very young. Bendall-Brunello's work is aptly described here as jaunty. It reminds me a bit of Quentin Blake. ...
