Remark:
The raccoon discovers the lion-clad donkey. The lamb needs time to digest. The moral works from the lamb, not the wolf; I think that is a bad choice. One traveler is so fat that he cannot climb the tree. Good lively cartoon work in the Disney tradition. All in this series of nine (I am apparently missing the tenth) add hard covers and a title page to the JOIE softbound text. The inside color is never as brilliant as JOIE's. The covers are the same, but with new fonts and a cameo of Aesop's Fables instead of doubled print; the volume number, Illustrated Fantasy Book for Children, and the horn-blowing angel are gone. This book printed in India is identical with the one Haddock printed in England and bound in Belgium.
