From the Collection:

The Carlson Fable Collection is a gathering of primary fable materials at Reinert Alumni Memorial Library at Creighton University. It grew out of the personal collection of fable materials gathered by Rev. Gregory Carlson, S.J. and was given to the Creighton Libraries in 1996. There are more than 10,000 books and approximately 8,000 artifacts in the collection.

From plates to stamps, from cards to whiskey decanters, from toys to posters, you'll find just about anything you can imagine here. Please explore all that is to offer here in my fables Catalogue of Objects.

This is the largest online catalog of fable related objects on the internet. Many are from Aesop's Fables but you will find La Fontaine, Velazquez and Krylov also represented in this collection.

Abstract

This disc has three fables, besides its songs and stories, with a steady background of classical music. They are Tracks 23, 24, and 25. The first two feature a male narrator with a non-native English accent. "Jupiter And The Monkey" (and the baby contest) runs 2:02. Jupiter starts to giggle when he sees the monkey baby. "I don't care what Jupiter or anyone else thinks. To me you are the most beautiful baby in the world" "Beauty is in the eye of the beholder." "The King Of The Forest" runs 1:26. The lion is ready to go to war and responds to criticism of them that the donkey and the rabbit have their own gifts. "Everyone is special in his or her own way. You just have to discover what you do best." LM runs 3:31 and uses a female narrator with a second voice for the little mouse. The hunters are so happy with capturing a lion that they go off to a long lunch to celebrate. "Sometimes the weak are able to help the strong. Have you ever helped a grownup do something they had trouble doing themselves?"
