Turtle and Rabbit
(Follett, 1981)

The Lion and the Mouse
(Oxford University Presscol. ill. ;, 1981)
A simple story emphasizing Marty the Mouse's intelligence. Pages 15-18 and 27-30 are out of place. The illustrations are lively.

(Foreign Languages Press, 1981)

The Tortoise and the Hare
(Tele-Story: Superscope, 1981)
A small, square book that adds quite a few of its own touches to this story. Both principal characters are fully dressed. The tortoise uses a walking stick. The jokester bunny makes a practice of knocking on the tortoise's ...
