Äsop Phädrus Babrios Lessing Fabeln
(Verlag Münstermann-Druck, 1966)
I am delighted to have found this little book, since it was produced in a limited production of only 3000 copies. Might it have been printed as a gift of the firm for its friends? A note at the end of the book describes ...
Fabeln und Bilder
(Der Kinderbuchverlag Berlin, 1984)
A really lovely book. Eleven fables, including two from Aesop (FG and Die Katze und die Hühner) and from Krylov (Der Hahn und die Perle and Der Schwan, der Hecht und der Krebs). Others: Der Löwe und der Hase from Lessing, ...
Satire from Aesop to Buchwald
(Macmillan/Collier Macmillan, 1971)
The two first items in this book of satire come from Aesop and Babrius, respectively: FG and The Oxen and the Butchers (7). Ambrice Bierce contributes six funny items from Fantastic Fables on 307-310. The book bears ...
Das Schönste Fabelbuch für Brave Kinder: Eine Auswahl aus Deutschlands Fabelschatz
(Druck und Verlag von Rob. Bardtenschlager, 1915)

Aesop and Hyssop
(Open Court, 1912)
Here is the paperbound version of this delightful book! This book has more than a bit of whimsy in it, composed as it is (in verse) by its author in grief over having lost his wife or best friend. Besides some 175 Aesopic ...
Best Loved Fables of Aesop/Nonsense Alphabets.
(Grolier Society, 1967)
This book is identical (in larger format with enlarged and relatively good illustrations) with the Avenel edition (1967?) of the same name, except that it also contains Edward Lear's Nonsense Alphabets upside down and going ...
Fabulas: Selección de Autores Célebres
(Ediciones Susaeta S.A., 1979)
Seventy-five fables on some 106 pages with a T of C at the back. The two strongest features of this book might be the wide selection of authors and the pleasant one-to-a-fable colored illustrations. Though not profound, ...
Fábulas para Niños

This hardy paperback has survived for a long time! It has 184 pages, divided into "Fábulas en Prosa" and "Fábulas en Verso." The break, noted in the closing T of C, is not noted in the text. Within that division, fables ...
