Aesop's Fables

One of the most influential books in world literature, Aesop's Fables has taught morality through animal characters for over two and a half thousand years. The tortoise and the hare, the boy who cried wolf, the ant and the grasshopper, the fox and the grapes: these short, sharp stories of foolish crows, clever foxes, and stubborn tortoises distill hard-won human wisdom into unforgettable images, each closing with a moral that still lands today. Attributed to a storyteller who may have been a freed slave in ancient Greece, these fables have crossed every language and culture since, shaping the way children and adults alike learn to spot pride, greed, and folly in themselves. This Chronicle Vault edition presents the complete collection, unabridged, in a clean, fully reflowable format for all e-readers.
