Balinese Children's Favorite Stories
(Periplus, 2001)
"The introduction to this surprising book admits that some of the stories here come from Aesop, who some are reported to believe was a Phrygian slave of the Romans (4). The other main source here is the "Panchatantra." ...
Fabeln von Gotthold Ephraim Lessing
(Volksverband der Bücherfreunde: Wegweiser-Verlag, 1927)
"This delightful little volume was a "Liebhaberabdruck für die Freunde des Volksverbandes der Bücherfreunde" and was not for sale. Lessing's fables are always stimulating. One forgets perhaps how droll and clever he is! ...

(Festungsverlag Salzburg, 1946)
I have known of Hans Licht -- and I presume it is the correct Hans Licht -- from his history of sexual life in ancient Greece. Here are eighteen longish fables. I tried the first: country mouse and mole. Well done! ...
Petites Fables
(Éditions Médicis, 1965)
"Here is an unusual and curious effort. Zaug has created some 140 30-line poems and arranged them alphabetically, as the closing T of C shows. The collection is preceded by a dedication, an invocation of La Fontaine, and ...
A Brief History of Fables: From Aesop to Flash Fiction
(Hesperus Press, 2011)
"I have returned to this book not regarding that I had already catalogued it without looking into it. This is not the first time that this has happened: too many books and too many years! I will start with my more recent ...
The Tale of Rabbit and Coyote
(Scholastic, 1995)
"The back cover is right: "Rabbit keeps tricking Coyote again and again." Several of those trickster moves are the stuff of fable. In the first trick, a farmer gets rabbit stuck to a wax scarecrow that is like the tar ...
