Aesop's Fables
(Pavilion Books, 1992)
A very pleasing book available from this publisher only in the United Kingdom. See the adjacent listing for the first U.S. edition. Salter was born in Cairo, and her art here is in a primitive style after that of Persian ...
Pop-Up Fable Fun
(London: Chatto and Windus. Los Angeles: Intervisual Communications, 1978)
A new combination for me: a pop-up with picture-changing (not 3-D) glasses, unfortunately not present with this book. The boy crying Wolf! and the woodchopper needing an axe-handle are cleverly put into the same pop-up ...
Professor Aesop's The Crow and the Pitcher
(Tricycle Press, 2003)
Here is a delightful, eclectic problem-solving approach to the time honored fable of CP. One pair of pages about ten pages into the work will give a sample idea. The point is well stated in the few words of text: After ...
The greedy fox and other stories by Aesop
(HMSO], 1993)
This is a pleasant 20-page pamphlet 7½ x 8¼ containing three fables and a short life of Aesop including GGE and FK. The title-story puts the fox into a hollow tree trunk. There is a graphic illustration of the greedy fox ...
Aesop's Fables Illustrated
(Samuel R. Wells, 1868)
I have had copies of this little book dated to 1870 and 1870/73. Now I have here a copy, in very good condition, which its seller proclaims as a first edition. It is dated 1868 and inscribed at Christmas that year by ...
The Bear and the Travellers and The Ducks and the Tortoise
(Award Publications Limited, 2002)
This volume seems to belong to the set from which I already have two other volumes, but the three booklets are printed by different companies. See The Ass in the Pond by Ginn in 1984/85 and The Eagle and the Man by the ...
The Book of Fables: Containing Aesop's Fables.
(F.M. Lupton Publishing Company, 1902)
Quite similar to the Arlington Edition (1899?), except for rearrangement and different spellings in titles. A note added to the editor's preface indicates the addition of 130 fables not in the first and second editions. ...
Aesop's Fables
(Dial Books for Young Readers: Penguin Young Readers GroupPenguin Group, 2003)
Here is a slightly smaller version in a special collection of a book already in the collection. The cover and the verso of the title-page proclaim this book as part of Dolly Parton's Imagination Library. This copy has ...
Usborne Illustrated Stories from Aesop
(EDC PublishingUsborne Publishing, 2013)
I visited this monthly flea-market as a part of a visit with my cousin Barb, and there in the middle of the market was an Usborne representative selling books at non-flea-market prices. I have enjoyed Usborne books for a ...
Aesop's Fables: The Fox and the Grapes
(Bright Sparks Parragon,Parragon: The Complete Works, 2001)
As I came to catalogue this book, I thought that I recognized it as identical with another that I already had. Having the two of them in my hands showed me that I was wrong. Internally the books are the same, and their ...
