Les Fables de Roland: Les Animaux d'Esope

With this book of six puzzles, learn to read while having fun. This livre-puzzle offers three Aesopic fables related through pages six of which are picture puzzles. Under the puzzle section of this catalogue, I offer ...
Kejsarens nya kläder
(Bonnier Carlsen Bokförlag, 2010)
This is for me a favorite version of Andersen's great story because it is so frank about the Emperor's nudity. The cover's image is the same as that on the title-page, and both are explicit about showing him naked except ...
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 ...
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 ...

À table avec Jean de La Fontaine: 55 recettes fabuleuses et morales de nos campagnes
(Agnes Vienot Editions, 2012)
This was a lucky find on my first afternoon in Paris. I seldom bother these days with new book stores. It was even less likely this day, when I had Gibert Jeune and similar bookstores at hand. I stopped in and asked ...
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
(CreateSpace Independent Publishing Platform, 2014)
120 pages. This book is close to the nadir in trendy publishing. The good news is that it offers Townsend's texts in readable form. The less good news includes the simple setup of the book: pages typed onto or scanned ...
Les Fables de La Fontaine
(Hemma Éditions, 2003)
Here each of twelve of La Fontaine's fables is given a two-page spread. Some have a single illustration spreading over the two pages. Others have a pair of illustrations. The cover shows various animals looking down ...
Fables La Fontaine Illustré
(Editions Ouest-France, 2012)
This is a large-format book (10½ x 14½) presenting a lovely broad sweep of some forty-five fables and illustrations approaching 160 in all. Names of the artists used here are too many to fit into the database field for ...
