Zwanzig Fabeln des Aesop
(Nord-Süd Verlag, 1980)
Here is a large-format presentation of twenty fables, listed on the title-page across from a lovely full-page illustration titled Fabulier-Stunde, which features a fox and a rabbit in a large field looking onto a farm home, ...
Aesop's Fables
(Reading Disability Clinic, 1970)
This is a curious and delightful find. It is a landscape book about 8½ x 5½ with about half of its spiral binding intact. Another piece of the binding fell away as I was working with this book. I cannot find an indication ...
The Book of Fables: Containing Aesop's Fables.
(Mershon, 1920)
Closest to the 1901? and 1902? Lupton editions with the same title. See my comments there. Except for the title page and cover, the books seem identical. Like those, this book has no illustrations. In fact, this book ...
Aesop's Fables
(Junior Literary Guild, 1933)
I was surprised to find this book. I did not know that the Artzybasheff edition was done by anyone other than Viking. Is this book actually over sixty years old? The internal book seems identical to the Viking editions. ...
The Fables of Aesop Selected and Told Anew
(DeWolfe Fiske & Co.,, 1910)
Here is yet another reprinting of Jacobs and Heighway. This book (5¼ x 6¾) adds several features that I think I have not yet found in a Jacobs/Heighway edition. First it uses the curious phrase Profusely Illustrated on ...
Fables By Aesop
(Dormac, 1982)
This is a large-format (8½ x 11) classroom book of 65 pages. It aims at providing students with the opportunity of sharing in the cultural heritage that Aesop's fables have provided us but without the barriers of complicated ...
The Ass in the Pond
(Ginn and Company Ltd., 1984)
This booklet is identical with a third impression found earlier. This has no such marking, and so I presume that it is a first impression. Let me repeat some of my comments from there. This is an engaging eight-page ...
The Donkey and the Lapdog
(Ginn and Company, 1984)
This is an engaging sixteen-page pamphlet with stiff covers. Biro's best illustration here may be the double-page centerfold showing the dog in the master's lap and the donkey looking in enviously through the window. In ...
The Farmer and His Sons
(Ginn and Company, 1984)
This is an engaging sixteen-page pamphlet with stiff covers. Biro's best illustration here may be the double-size picture at the centerfold: the boys run to the field, each with a different dream of treasure pictured in ...
The Man, His Son, and the Ass
(Ginn and Company, 1984)
This is an engaging sixteen-page pamphlet with stiff covers. Two things are of note in this delightful rendition of the traditional story. First, the upside-down expression of the ass being carried on the pole is worth ...
