The Grasshopper and the Ants
(Walt Disney ProductionsWestern Publishing Company, 1968)
This booklet-plus-record from Valencia Street in San Francisco is tantalizingly similar to one already in the collection, found at Old Bank Antiques in Hastings nineteen years ago. Let me catalogue the differences. The ...
The Canterbury Tales: A Selection
(Henry Holt, 1988)
First published in Great Britain by Walker Books. After an introduction and presentation of the scene at the Tabard, there are seven characters presented with their tales. The Nun's Priest is introduced on 44 and his ...
Delos, Volume I, Number 3
(Center for World Literature, 1988)
Half of this number goes to fables. T of C on 3-4 gives an overview of this eclectic gathering. The best fable section surveys FC (19-34). The Packets by Bates and Whittemore tend to move outside the fable genre. ...
fables
(Robert Laffont, 1958)
Several unusual features mark this book, which is a handy, straightforward presentation of LaFontaine's complete fables. First, there is an excellent engraving of a lion and stork on the cover, unfortunately hidden by the ...
Fables de la Fontaine

Once a Mouse...
(Charles Scribner's Sons, 1961)
This classic tale is well told here, with lively two-color and three-color illustrations. The endpapers of the olive edition (marked 6.70 on the reverse of the title-page) are torn. The multi-colored copy is marked 4.69.
Fables de La Fontaine
(Editions Hemma, 1967)
This oversize (12 x 9) book seems internally identical with Fables Choisies printed in Belgium and published by M.A. Hemmerlin in 1969. The two differences I can establish without having that book in hand are these: that ...
Favourite Aesop's Fables

This is one of four pamphlets, all 24 pages in length, which have Fables across their back cover, followed by the same brief description and history of fables. Here GGE is pictured on the cover, with surrounding leaves, ...
