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.

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!

Large book, but it is very thin and only contains 20 fables. I am returning it.

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... this review is for ISBN# 0-7624-0413-2. I bought this and other books based on reviews that were not relevent to the particular version of the book I purchased.



Average rating of 3/5Average rating of 3/5Average rating of 3/5Average rating of 3/5Average rating of 3/5 a great book, but not for my classroom, 2004-07-18
While I appreciate this book for its beautiful, large illustrations, I wish I had browsed the table of contents before purchasing it. I had intended to use this book with my first grade class because we are studying Aesop's Fables. However, since two of the fables in this book contain the word "ass," this book is not appropriate for my classroom. I have no problem using it with my own children, however, so I'm not sorry that I bought it!
