The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse: An Aesop Fable
(Rand McNally & Company, 1973)
I thought I had this book, and was wrong again! In fact, it is a copy of the much larger book of the same year from the same company. Where that book was 8 x 10¼, this little book is 4¾ x 6½. This book needs thinner ...

(Review of Reviews Office, 1896)
Pink pictorial paper wraps. Each of the sixty fables listed in the beginning T of C has from two to five small black-and-white illustrations that are most similar to the old transfers we played with as children. As in ...
Aesop's Fables (Aesops Fables on cover)
(M.A. Donohue & Co., 1900)
I include this book separately in the collection because of the publishing curiosities it presents. Basically, it is the same book as that listed under the same title, year, and publisher. It has the same cover illustration ...

Here is the latest printing of a work I comment on extensively under its first publication date of 1961. It is now included as #49 in the C.I.C. (Children's Illustrated Classics) series.

Aesop's Fables
(Derrydale, 1999)
Here is yet another edition of Santore's work. This one largely reproduces the Random House edition of 1995 with smaller margins and a different cover. This cover is red and displays a picture of the fox and the boar, ...
The Fables of Aesop with 75 Illustrations (Cover: Aesop's Fables Profusely Illustrated)
(Homewood Publishing Co., 1920)
I am proud and delighted that I was able to find two parallels for this strange book. In fact, it uses the same plates as an edition by W.B. Conkey that I have also assigned to 1920? The cover of that book featured a ...
Fabeln von Aesop
(Sonderausgabe für den Gondrom Verlag[Gondrom], 1981)
Here is the German version of a pop-up book the English version of which I have, published by Brown Watson in 1975. As there, the copyright here belongs to Artia from 1975. The texts here follow that Brown Watson edition ...
Once in a Wood: Ten Tales from Aesop
(A Mulberry Paperback Book: Greenwillow BooksMulberry Books, 1993)
Here is the paperback version of a hardbound book published in 1979, which I had found in 1985. Only the binding seems to have changed. See my comments there.

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 ...
