Dear friends,



Further to Edgar's post, some of Steinbarg's fables are available in
English in a volume called "*The Jewish Book of Fables: The Selected Works
of Eliezer Shtaynbarg*". The book can be ordered from Amazon.com (
https://www.amazon.com/Jewish-Book-Fables-Shtaynbarg-Traditions/dp/08156071=
80/ref=3Dsr_1_1?ie=3DUTF8&qid=3D1504173244&sr=3D8-1&keywords=3Dbook+of+jewi=
sh+fables)
and also contains some illustrations.


Best wishes,


Daniel Ari Baker
