Fables d'Ésope
(Fernand Nathan Éditeur, 1983)
Here is the French version of the 1981 original by Viking Penguin. Of course I found it in Germany! As I wrote of the English original, this book is lavish and well done. Holder's illustrations catch each of the nine ...
Ten Best-Loved Aesop's Fables
(Educational Insights, 1983)
For use with an excellent tape. The stories are well told, each with one simple colored picture. There are many changes from traditional stories: How can the crow hold an apple in his beak and eat it at the same time? ...
My Big FunThinker Book of Fun with Fables.
(Educational Insights, 1983)
An activities book to accompany the tape and Ten Best-Loved Aesop's Fables (1983). Color, connect the dots, escape the maze, color by numbers, and find the hidden pictures. The art is simple.
Le Favole di Esopo
(Gruppo Editoriale Fabbri, 1983)
The pictures are indeed in several styles, and often cover two pages and move into and around the text. I like the guitar-playing grasshopper on the very last page of illustrations. Some of the others seem to tend to a ...
Ezop Masallari
(Serhat A.S., 1983)
This is an unassuming Turkish paperback edition of Aesop's fables without illustrations. Fables are offered on 5 through 95. There is neither a T of C nor an AI. Is the fox in the front cover's illustration smoking a ...
Aesop's Fables (Japanese)
(KodanshaK¿dansha, 1983)
With one addition, these seem to be the fables and illustrations chosen for the Kodansha edition Animal Fables of 1993. See my comments there. This edition adds OF to that book's ten fables. This book may have the ...
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 ...
The Fox and the Crow
(Ginn and Company Ltd, 1983)
This is a well-worn but sympathetic and engaging eight-page pamphlet with stiff covers. I love Biro's illustrations. The fox here is like an outfielder making a diving catch of the cheese which the crow has let fall. ...
The Sun and the Wind: An Aesop Fable
(Faith and Life Press, 1983)
Here the wind and the sun start by laying out their philosophies. The wind insists that nothing is stronger than force and that he can make people do anything he wants if he blows hard enough. The sun smiles and speaks ...
The Birds the Beasts, and the Bat
(The Quail Hill Press, 1983)
Here is a beautifully bound miniature almost 2 square. There are printer's designs rather than illustrations along the way, including geometric designs on the endpapers. With the red title there is a lovely little black ...
