The Boy Who Cried Wolf
(Dominie Press, Inc.: Pearson Learning Group, 1999)
Here is the fifth book of this series of ten. The word count is 265. Sixteen pages. Finding two of the books of this series led to finding more. Acquiring individual copies, I arrived at a total of nine out of the ten. ...
Drei Dutzend Fabeln von Äsop
(Flamberg-Verlag, 1968)
Bodemann #512.1. I had hoped for this book since I saw it used for the last illustration in Hobbs. The book is remarkable first of all for using Steinhöwel as the basis for its texts for its thirty-six prose fables. One ...
Fabeln des Äsop Nach Steinhöwels Erneuertem Esopus
(Insel-Verlag, 1933)

Fábulas de Esopo

Oops! I did not research carefully enough when ordering, and so I did not realize that I already had a first edition of this Spanish version. I will mention what I wrote there. Does that also have a padded cover? I ...
The Hare and the Tortoise
(Piccolo Picture Classics Pan Books Ltd.,, 1984)
A smaller replica of the same title in 1985 by Dutton, with watercolors slightly less well done. Meg calls attention to the lovely pun near the end: By a hair's breadth. This is indeed an enchanting book, with lovely ...
Aesop's Fables
(Barrons, 1989)
An enjoyable book, characterized by its brightly colored end papers and picture borders. Several fables are especially well told: FC and The Little Bird and the Bat. The hare plays solitaire before falling asleep. ...
