Peace Tales: World Folktales to Talk About
(Linnet Books: The Shoe String Press, Inc., 1992)

Children's Classic Stories: Fairytales, fables & folktales
(Bardfield Press: Miles Kelly Publishing, 2004)

(Field Enterprises Educational Corp., 1949)
One finds here the same eleven fables and the same illustrations as in the 1949 Childcraft edition. See my comments there. The covers and endpapers have changed. Compare also with the Childcraft editions of 1931/47. ...
Fairy Tales
