Remark:
This slim little paperback (with its 1975 companion volume) offers a variety of good helps indicated in the title-page description reproduced above. There are unfortunately only seven single-pages of illustrations. The book's strengths may lie in the questions, the vocabulary, and the judicious selection of 57 fables of the 114 in the last six books. Oudry, Doré, and Grandville seem to be the standard illustrators most frequently presented in works like this. This edition has some good engravings and paintings not from fable-books.
