Classika Eikonographemena: Aisopos
(Atlantis - M. Fechlivanides and Co., 2000)
This 48-page comic book, consistent with our Classics Illustrated, presents the life of Aesop. To my surprise, it starts with Aesop as an older man. I can make out very few of the more commonly supposed events of tradition ...
Wereldse Vertellingen
(Ministerie van Buitenlandse Zaken/Ontwikkelingssamenwerking, 2005)
Here is a dear gift from a dear friend. Six stories with wonderfully lively illustrations take us into learning situations about the contemporary world. One story deals with an unnstable nest of ants, where one can even ...
Fables Impertinentes
(Éditions Retz, 2010)
One of a cycle of books produced by Retz as impertinentes. Each fable's retelling plays some game, like GA's substitution and multiple placement of pitit all over the fable, as in this line 'I was singing,' replied the ...
Äsop: Die Fabeln
(Boje Verlag in der Bastei Lübbe, 2011)
Here is the German version of the very good fable book published in 2010 in English by Andersen Press. As I wrote there, Testa's style remains similar to the style he showed in his 1989 Barron edition encompassing twenty ...
Aesop's Fables
(Hebei Education Publishing Press, 2006)

Forty-one fables on 114 pages, with vocabulary, translations, and listening points for each fable. The listening points are explained in Chinese and repeated on the accompanying pair of audio cassettes; these idiomatic ...
The Bat, the Birds, and the Beasts
(Butter English Press, 2006)
This large-format book tells apparently the same story of the bat's wishy-washy involvement in the battle of the birds and the beasts in two directions, English and Korean, starting from the two outsides of the book. The ...
Aesop's Fables 30
(2008)
Many Korean books I have encountered give some hints about their origin; one can find some English words scattered on the bibliographical page. This book is not like that. I could not even find a year of publication! ...
Aesop's Fables 1
(2008)
Many Korean books I have encountered give some hints about their origin; one can find some English words scattered on the bibliographical page. This book is not like that. I feel lucky to have found a date that I believe ...
Jean de La Fontaine: Basni (Russian)
(Bely Gorod, 2005)
At 672 pages, this is one of the largest books in the collection. The seller estimates that there are some 1000 illustrations, all black-and-white, in the book. The book is unusually well printed for a publication emanating ...
