Remark:
It is a shame that this book is in such terrible shape. Pages 325-334 contain fourteen fables, ten of them illustrated by Rountree with somewhat indistinct black-and-white designs. My other Rountree books all have exclusively full-page colored illustrations. And the one full-page colored illustration that Rountree did for this book (TH, facing 352) is missing! The best of the black-and-white illustrations here are the pair for TMCM on 330-1. What is that dog doing on the bottom of 328? And is that a wolf with the lamb on 329? The last pages of the book are also missing. My one treasure from Grand Island.
