"A collection of folktales at their absolute best" (Elizabeth Bird, SLJ.com) about a legendary scoundrel, brought to new life through Renate Raecke's lively retelling and Jonas Lauströer's expressive illustrations. Reynard the Fox has been a staple trickster character of European literature since at least the Middle Ages. The tales of his schemes have been told many times, and he always manages to win readers' sympathies. Reynard is a rascal, a ne'er-do-well. While we may suffer from his pranks, at the same time we smile at the shrewd thinking through which he escapes hopeless situations. In this expertly retold version, the classic tales of Reynard's exploits find a new life. They speak to us now as much as ever, for who among us doesn't know a Reynard-like figure in our lives?
Describes the habits and rehabilitation of a young red fox found on the highway and brought to a special center, where it was taught how to survive in the wild before being released again.
As he listens to a hermit recount the adventures and schemes of the wily and cunning Reynard, a king finds a solution to a troubling dilemma.
Valued for its comic spirit, its high literary quality, and its clever satire of feudal society, the famous medieval poem about the legendary fox uses animals to represent the members of various classes.
A collection of eighteen fables as told by Jean de La Fontaine, including "The Tortoise Who Ran a Race with the Hare" and "The Grapes Hang High for Reynard the Fox."
