    The Donkey in the Lion's Skin 

    Aesop; Biro, Val (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 Boy Who Cried Wolf 

    Littledale, Freya (Scholastic Book Services, 1975)
    There are two Easter eggs pasted on 30 of the good copy, and there is some water staining on the older extra, but this is a delightful pamphlet. The fable is well told. Tom fools the hunters and the fishermen. Both unite ...

    The Hare and the Tortoise 

    Schorsch, Kit (Checkerboard Press, 1989)
    Another cute rebus story from Checkerboard in the series that includes The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse (1989). Each picture is given with its word in the margin. Hernandez' pastels are appealing. The best illustration ...

    La liebre y la tortuga 

    No Author (CarvajalEditorial Norma, 1979)
    Good pop-ups, some of which even incorporate a bit of action, for example when the hare rises up tired or when the race-finishing judge waves the checkered flag. The hare has a great grumpy look on the last page. For ...

    The Race of the Turtle and the Rabbit, with five 3 dimensional spring-ups 

    Aesop; Schmeing, Laura V (Artcraft Paper Products, 1950)
    This book is in the same series with Goldie the Goose (1950?) and The Lion and the Mouse Join the Circus (1950?). The turtle is Myrtle, and the Bunny is Bert. Myrtle joins Mrs. Duck in telling Bert that he should not ...

    The Boy Who Cried Wolf 

    Barnett, Carol (NTC Publishing GroupPassport Books, 1990)
    See the Oxford edition of 1981, a smaller pamphlet with poorer runs of the illustrations. See my comments there. Originally published in 1979. The series is also identified as Passport StoryLand Books.

    Goldie the Goose That Laid the Golden Egg. 

    Berbach, Edith (Artcraft Paper Products, 1950)
    Mother Goose tells her goslings the story of Auntie Goldie and Farmer Brown. Though the art has him throwing away the hatchet, the written version has him killing her. A nice simple pop-up book, in the same series as The ...

    Chiquita y Pepita: Dos ratoncitas/Chiquita and Pepita: The City Mouse and the Country Mouse. 

    No Author (National Textbook Company, 1978)
    This is a lively telling that takes liberties with the story. Pepita holds a party in the country for Chiquita and serves bread and cheese. They take a bus to the city. The illustrations are animated. Near-identical ...

    Tina la Tortuga y Carlos el Conejo/Tina the Turtle and Carlos the Rabbit. 

    Bishop, Dorothy Sword (National Textbook Company, 1972)
    Well told, with lively and enjoyable illustrations. The argument and bet are very well handled. The distinctive feature of this series is that near-identical books in Spanish and English are bound together.

    El muchacho que gritó ¡el lobo!/The boy who cried wolf 

    De Hoogh, Eugenia (National Textbook Company, 1977)
    The illustrations, though simple, are particularly lively. In this version, the wolf stands with hands on hips and tells the boy that he plays so many jokes that he will not get help. The distinctive feature of this ...
