Aesop's Fables:
Everyone should introduce their child to these classic stories. Keep the tradition going, my mom read them to me, and I to my children and grandchildren.
Wonderful Memories:
Like most people, I grew up hearing bits and pieces of Aesop's fables, sometimes not really knowing from whence I got such statements like "sour grapes" etc. This book is a delightful compendium of tales, complete with pictures to accompany them. A joy!
Only 20 Fables:
Large book, but it is very thin and only contains 20 fables. I am returning it.
Wonderful book! Just needs MORE content!:
This book was a gift for my 4 year old. It seems to be a re-written edition which is fine, as it is easier to understand than other versions we have. The illustrations are wonderful and my daughter loves them. However I was a bit disappointed that they could not fill this book with more fables. It seems like sort of a thin book for the price, and some of the most popular fables were omitted from this version. Just an FYI, since Amazon seems to be mixing reviews on here among various versions of books...... more info
