Highlights for Children (magazine)

Abstract

Here is an extra copy of this issue. This edition of this popular children's magazine contains The Crow at the Well (21). The telling is good and traditional, except, I think, for the placement at a well. The story is identified as based on a fable by Aesop, retold by Jean K. Potratz, and illustrated by Jan Pyk. I had checked this magazine in used-book stores frequently and given up on the possibility that it would ever contain a fable. I will write to ask them if they have done others. (They did not answer.)
