This is an extra copy. Here is fun! For each of four fables, there are three areas of interaction: Méli-Mélo, Cache-cache, and Mots et mots. The four fables are FC, GA, OF, and LM. Before we encounter a fable, we find ...

Here is a miniature facsimile reproduced from an uncut sheet originally printed by Chez Marcilly, Paris about 1835. It is a somewhat disappointing work since the full-page illustrations --seven of them -- are dark and ...
