El Cuervo y la Zorra
(Ediciones A. Saldaña, 1999)
"Once again, things come together from different times and places. In Salamanca in 1986, I found a simple pop-up from a publisher I did not know. Sixteen years later I found a French die-cut presentation of LM done by ...
The Blind Men and the Elephant: John Godfrey Saxe's version of the famous Indian legend.
(Whittlesey House; McGraw-Hill, 1963)
This sideways book presents the story very nicely. I still cannot say whether the story should be reckoned as a fable. Saxe's verse and Galdone's alternating black-and-white and several-color illustrations present it ...
The Tortoise and the Hare
(Holiday House, 1984)
Slightly larger than the identical hardbound copy from the Weekly Reader Children's Book Club.
The Donkey in the Lion's Skin
(The Wright Group, 1986)
Number 3 in the series. Here is a quirky eBay find. I had found one other book in this set, which now includes not twelve but rather eighteen members. Biro's work is always lively, and this eight-page presentation of ...
The Goose That Laid the Golden Eggs

(The Wright Group, 1990)

The Mice That Ate Iron
(Albert Whitman & Company, 1963)
It was expensive to get this book! But it helps fill out the series that Katherine Evans developed. This is her seventh different Aesop title that I have. It is in excellent condition. In this cleverly worked version, ...
The Man, The Boy, and The Donkey
(Albert WhitmanScott, Foresman and Company, 1958)
By special arrangement with Albert Whitman & Company. This edition adds to my copy from the 1969 printing a pictorial cover, pictorial end-papers reproduced from facing pages at the center of the book, and a list facing ...
One Good Deed Deserves Another
(Albert Whitman & Company, 1964)
A green cloth cover has the title and images of a mother and child. As elsewhere in her Whitman books, Katherine Evans uses a crayon-like style, alternating black-and-white and colored spreads. A Hispanic family of three ...
The Man, The Boy, and The Donkey
(Albert Whitman & CompanyAlbert Whitman & Comapny, 1958)
A red cloth cover has the title and images of a donkey and a boy. As elsewhere in her Whitman books, Katherine Evans uses a crayon-like style, alternating black-and-white and colored spreads. Young Peter is the first to ...
