An awesome collection of fables that have withstood the test of time. I would recommend this book to all my friends. ( )

short little proverbs usually using animals to tell a morality stories. Some of these proverbs are often spoken but wonder how many know whence they come? Remind me of the Proverbs from the Bible. Rating 3.75 ( )

A nice old edition of Aesop's Fables, with some very nice woodcut illustrations by an artist unknown. There is a biography of Aesop, and an essay on his fables. Each fable is preceded by a moral. I like the fables, but the translations are too high-toned for the kids who were probably the target audience. ( )
