The Lion and the Mouse
(The Wright Group, 1990)
I have this little booklet already as it was produced in 1988 by Ginn and Company. Now here is the Wright Group's edition. It set or tied a record for my dealings on eBay, since I got the booklet for one cent! It once ...
The Ass in the Pond
(Ginn and Company Ltd., 1984)
This booklet is identical with a third impression found earlier. This has no such marking, and so I presume that it is a first impression. Let me repeat some of my comments from there. This is an engaging eight-page ...
The Farmer and His Sons
(Ginn and Company, 1984)
This is an engaging sixteen-page pamphlet with stiff covers. Biro's best illustration here may be the double-size picture at the centerfold: the boys run to the field, each with a different dream of treasure pictured in ...
The Man, His Son, and the Ass
(Ginn and Company, 1984)
This is an engaging sixteen-page pamphlet with stiff covers. Two things are of note in this delightful rendition of the traditional story. First, the upside-down expression of the ass being carried on the pole is worth ...
The Ducks and the Tortoise
(Ginn and Company Ltd, 1984)
This is an engaging eight-page pamphlet with stiff covers. The tortoise's downfall here comes when he says to the amazed people Look, I can fly! The only report of what happened next is: Thump! Now I have found five of ...

(Ginn and Company, 1984)
This is an engaging sixteen-page pamphlet with stiff covers. Biro's best illustration here may be the double-page centerfold showing the dog in the master's lap and the donkey looking in enviously through the window. In ...
Aisopoksen Tarinoita
(Satukustannus, 1990)
This book reproduces almost exactly a book I have in English: Collected Tales from Aesop's Fables (1986), a Gallery book from W.H. Smith Publishers. This edition skips the foreword, but its T of C, which borrows the ...
The Ass in the Pond
(Ginn and Company Ltd., 1984)
Here is a engaging eight-page pamphlet with stiff covers. It tells the story directly and even sparsely. Do not miss the smile on the ass's face on 5 when he has lost most of his salt. Then notice his chagrined look on ...
Collected Tales from Aesop's Fables
(Joshua Morris PublishingWishing Well Books, 1986)
This book seems an exact reproduction of one done in the same year by Gallery Books of Smith Publishers of NY. That book was printed in Hong Kong. This book is in the series Wishing Well Books by Joshua Morris Publishing ...
The Boy and the Lion
(Ginn and Company, 1983)
This is a well-worn but sympathetic and engaging sixteen-page pamphlet with stiff covers. I love Biro's illustrations. The boy in this booklet is indeed a boy, vaguely African with a cap and a tattered long shirt that ...
