I have found three sets of French cards, nearly identical. I will present the earlier two in writing and then in matching columns.
1990? "Sept Familles: Fables de La Fontaine." 42 cards featuring a backing, a number between 1 and 6, a fable title and image, and four to six lines from that fable by La Fontaine. Artist: J. Hodges. There are thus seven "families" of the six numbered cards for that fable. Cardboard-boxed. Made in France. Saint-Max: France Cartes. €9.50 from Laboutiquebeue through eBay, Feb., '06. One extra copy.
The cards trace each of the seven fables step by step: FC; FS; LM; "Le Chat et les deux Moineaux"; GA; TH. The presentations are very lively! Blue pattern on the cards' verso. There are two extra cards: a title card and a rules card. This set differs from the parallel set in having the blue verso and in having lighter colors and sketchier backgrounds.

The cards trace each of the seven fables step by step: FC; FS; LM; "Le Chat et les deux Moineaux"; GA; TH. The presentations are very lively! This set differs from the parallel set in having a red-and-white bow-tie verso and heavier colors including a pink brick background on each card. There are no extra cards for rules or title. Instead, there is a cardboard organizer/label offering rules and advertising other cards. Plastic box.
2010? "Sept Familles: Fables de La Fontaine." 42 cards featuring a backing, a number between 1 and 6, a fable title and image, and four to six lines from that fable by La Fontaine. Artist: J. Hodges. There are thus seven "families" of the six numbered cards for that fable. Cardboard box. Bonux. €10 from pleant4755 through eBay, July, ‘21.
The cards’ faces are identical with the better colored version found earlier. New are the red back and the simple “Bonux” twice on each back. The package is now monochrome red with one face the same as the card back. Again, there are two extra cards: a title card and a rules card.
