Synopsis

Dating back to the sixth century BC, Aesop's Fables have long been favorites of people of all ages. Presented here are 160 of the most popular fables including The Tortoise and the Hare, The Fox and the Grapes, The Owl and the Grasshopper, and many other timeless classics. Based on translations of the original Greek, each fable lists a moral or suggested meaning - but not the only possible meaning. Included are over 150 illustrations by the famed nineteenth-century English artist and engraver Ernest Griset. Aesop's Fables have always been valued for their ability to both entertain and educate. This collection is distinguished from others by virtue of the number of fables, the number and the quality of the illustrations, and the inclusion of suggested morals. The reading level is appropriate for older childen to adults.
