EXCEEDS EXPECTATIONS!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 16 years ago
After searching through many Aesop's Fables books I decided on this one and I am SO glad I did. I plan on reading this book to my children and future grade school students. The pictures are absolutely wonderful and the fables are short enough to keep the attention of young children. Each fable is concluded with the moral of the story. I would absolutely recommend this book to anyone looking for a beautifully illustrated version of Aesop's Fables. GREAT KIDS BOOK!!
illustrations are captivating

As other reviewers have noted, the text of the fables is written in a contemporary style, but with oddly dated slang. The collection also omits some favorite fables (i.e., the tortoise and the hare is illustrated but not retold, Androcles and the Lion is not included at all...). However, the illustrations really draw young readers into the tales. I would have purchased this book for the illustrations alone. Enjoy!
