Resawed Fables (1911)

Resawed Fables is a book written by Douglas Malloch and first published in 1911. The book is a collection of fables, which are short stories that often feature animals as characters and convey a moral lesson. However, Malloch's fables are unique in that they take classic fables and ""resaw"" them, or give them a modern twist. For example, one of the fables in the book is a retelling of the classic story of the tortoise and the hare, but in Malloch's version, the hare is a race car driver and the tortoise is a farmer with a slow-moving tractor. The moral of the story remains the same - slow and steady wins the race - but the updated setting adds a new layer of interest for readers. Overall, Resawed Fables is a clever and entertaining book that offers a fresh take on classic fables. It is suitable for readers of all ages who enjoy stories with moral lessons and a touch of humor.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
