I write above that Pinkney is the author. Actually, the story of LM is beautifully presented almost without words. The only words one finds here are words like Squeak and Roar. Pinkney himself sums up the tale in the Artist's Note on the last page. On this page one also finds most of the bibliographical information. Pinkney's presentation is strong and winning. As he himself says, he ends up expanding the fable, especially by the inclusion of family. His art still reminds me of Frederick Richardson. The flyleaf is right: this is a stunningly rendered wordless adaptation of one of Aesop's most beloved fables. This is a new fable book that was worth the effort of making a new fable book!This is a hardbound book (hard cover)This book has a dust jacket (book cover)Stated first editionFirst printingJerry Pinkne

I already list a copy of the first printing that I received as a gift. This copy, from the fourth printing, adds a Caldecott Medal Award gold seal on the front dust-jacket. As I wrote there, my form lists Pinkney as the author. Actually, the story of LM is beautifully presented almost without words. The only words one finds here are words like Squeak and Roar. Pinkney himself sums up the tale in the Artist's Note on the last page. On this page one also finds most of the bibliographical information. Pinkney's presentation is strong and winning.

Aesop's Fables
This pamphlet, about 5½ square, presents cropped selections from Pinkney's larger work by the same title. There are six fables here, all but one (TH) offering a full-page illustration. TH gets a two-page spread at the middle of the book with just the figure of a turtle at the lower right. As I say of the larger book, the art sometimes reminds me of Frederick Richardson. Other fables here include GA, CP, TB, BS, and The Mermaid and the Woodcutter. This book has two crows deal with the water in the pitcher; of course, only one is successful.First printingJerry Pinkney
