Jean de La Fontaine: Fables
(Gallimard Jeunesse, 2003)
This lovely little book, 6½ x 7½, is a new favorite. My affection for the book starts with the way the cover illustrations are painted onto the page as though they were stickers. These figures include the fox and crow, ...
Cent Fables de La Fontaine
(Omnibus, 2004)
This is a fascinating concept. Each of the hundred fables presented here includes La Fontaine's text, presented with a bowed margin. Each also includes at least one black-and-white photograph, the kind one can often ...

Fables: Jean de La Fontaine
(Édition du ChêneÉditions du Chêne: Hachette Livre, 2004)
This little volume, about 4½ x 6¼, has a surprising range of visual offerings. It may be one of the best simple introductions to the variety of French illustration of La Fontaine. Though the flyleaf advertises the work ...
Fables de La Fontaine 3
(Tormont, 2006)
My hat is off to Tormont. They get more mileage out of their good work than anyone else I know. They had done three different publications out of a set of illustrations by Georgeta Pusztai: a box of five English books, ...
