I've now had a chance to see an actual printed copy of the book, and it looks good to me! In fact, I am really happy with it: I wanted to use an easy-to-read font with a fairly large font size and reader-friendly layout - and it seems to have worked out really nicely.
So, for anybody who is interested in reading any of the fables - just 1 or 10 or 100 or all 1001 of them - you can get a printed copy of the book from Lulu.com ($19.95 paperback), or you can download a free PDF copy of the book (the PDF is an exact copy of the printed book). I hope you will all enjoy it, and please let me know what you think by leaving a comment!
