Aesop's Fables
(Watermill Press, 1985)
The urge to put out cheap editions of Aesop continues! The versions here seem to be bent toward good story-telling. Are they taken from some earlier edition?
Cent dix-sept Fables d'Esope enrichies d'autant de figures selon l'édition de M.DCC.LXIII
(Au club Français du livre, 1963)
I had found a copy of this book twelve years ago. In keeping with a policy of including even extra copies of numbered, limited edition books, I will include this copy too. I can offer one new piece of information. I ...
Skeealyn Aesop: A Selection of Aesop's Fables
(S.K. Broadbent/Kessinger Publishing, 1901)
This book reprints a book of bilingual fables along with poems by Edward Farquhar of Cregneish. There is nothing in this book that was not in the original, I believe, except for three things: the covers with their simple ...
Aesop's Fables
(University of Washington Press, 1997)
Windmill Books originally published Lawrence's ink-on-paper illustrations for eighteen fables in 1970 (see my comments there), but he had done twenty-three. Now they are all presented here. Do not miss the fine frog ...
The Tortoise and the Hare/Friends at the End
(Steck-Vaughn Company, 1996)
Two stories, 23 pages long one way and 25 the other. In the first, traditional tale, when the tortoise challenged him to a race, the hare laughed so hard that he cried. After the lion-judge urged the competitors to get ...
Esops Fabler
(J.W. Eides Forlag, 1951)
Here is a book of wonderful art, lovingly produced! The color work is excellent. Among the best are these: The Fox and Goat (15); The Bear and Bees (16); OR (29); WL (34); TB (51), BF (56-57); and MSA (66-67). The ...
Ocht Sgealta o Aesop: Rang III, Ard-chursa, agus, Rang IV, Bun-chursa
(Macmillan agus a Gcomhlucht, Teo.ar n-a fhoillsiú do mhuinntir Ch. S. Ó Fallamhain Teo.,, 1935)
Gaelic readers will be able to understand more from the bibliographical data for this book than I can. I can see that it is a reader -- perhaps a school reader for the third and fourth grades? -- of some 32 pages offering ...
Esopovi Ba?ky (Ukrainian Aesop's Fables)
("Veselka", 1990)
This is a small book, about 5 x 6¾, with 247 pages of Aesop's fables followed by a T of C. The brown silhouette on the cloth cover -- of two mounted Greek horsemen and one soldier with a kneeling horse -- gives a sense ...
Isoho Monogatori, I
(Beizando, Taisho 14Beizandō, 1925)
The three volumes of this set are a facsimile reingraving of the 1659 Haseda Daigaku Toshokan copy of Aesop's fables. The imprint reads Ito San'emon, Manji 2. It is done in Oriental style on double leaves in a heavier ...
Fables of Aesop
(Penguin Books, 1954)
This is the only hardbound Penguin edition that I think I have ever seen! It looks from several indications as though it were printed for some country in Asia. It has some Oriental (?) characters on the verso of the ...
