The fables are told with economy of words and a moral set in a bold typeface The design of a set of printed characters, such as Courier, Helvetica and Times Roman. The terms "typeface" and "font" are used interchangeably, but the typeface is the primary design, while the font is the particular implementation and variation of the typeface, such as bold or italics  with the admonition Any formal verbal statement made during a trial by a judge to advise and caution the jury on their duty as jurors, on the admissibility or nonadmissibility of evidence, or on the purpose for which any evidence admitted may be considered by them.  "so remember!" But, although there's nothing distinctive about the verbal telling, the illustrations, which fill most of each spread, are certainly different. A variety of fabrics and threads create animals whose very simplified shapes are decoratively appealing and, at the same time, convey essential characteristics: the linear arms and legs of a monkey, the tortoise's mosaic-like shell, the peacock's wonderfully elaborate tail feathers, etc. And the integration of the animals with their backgrounds adds to the strong aesthetic qualities. End pages contain about 20 line drawing sketches for the fabric illustrations. A handsome resource for the artroom.
