Androcles and the Lion
(Faber and Faber Ltd, 1971)
A great find in a store on Charing Cross Road that did not think they had any Aesop. The faces are excellently portrayed throughout. The story uses thumbs up well; it serves rightly in the cover picture. Excellent ...
Country Mouse, City Mouse
(Random House, 1978)
A cute Disney version that strings the tale to some length. It dresses the mice, gives them names and even a mouse car that screeches around bigger cars. This version departs from the tradition in that the city mouse, ...
Wolf! Wolf!
(Faber and Faber, 1974)
A lively and colorful paperback. Jason shepherds goats. There is a happy ending: Jason beats the wolf with his crook and forces him over the cliff.
Belling the Cat
(Oxford University Press, 1981)
A lively version involving the personalities of the whole mouse family, particularly the hungry young Michael and his wise old grandfather. The illustrations are simple and spirited.
The Country Mouse and the City Mouse
(Random House, 1977)
A delightful little Please read this book to me paperback for kids. The cat and the dog both get into the act, and the country mouse does not even wait to say good-bye. The best illustration is that of the cat's ...
The City Mouse and the Country Mouse
(DerrydaleDistributed by Crown Publishers Inc.,, 1987)
A high-class hardbound book with very good art. The guest is not just from the city but from the court. The country mouse offers better fare than in most versions. A dog, a cat, and servants menace. The country mouse ...
The Raven and the Fox
(Aladdin BooksMacmillan, 1988)
A wonderful little book. The version used is clean and tight. The illustrations are strong. The fox's whole Gestalt is whispy and greedy. I agree with the back cover: this book is suitable for the youngest child.
Wolf! Wolf!
(Aladdin BooksMacmillan, 1988)
A wonderful little book. The version used is clean and tight. The illustrations are strong and enjoyable. Here is some irony: Gerald Rose did a Wolf! Wolf! with Elizabeth Rose in 1974. I am surprised that he did not ...
The Lion and the Mouse
(Macmillan, 1988)
Well done. Here many mice run around on the lion, who ends up in a cage held together by rope. Not quite as good as The Raven and the Fox, but still a strong book for very young readers.
The Hare and the Hedgehog
(Derrydale Books, 1983)
Great stiff pages. The hedgehog looks as though Steiff made him! The race seems to involve just one furrow each time, and it seems to be the same furrow each time! The cover picture gives the sense of a race better than ...
