My Thoughts:
Aesop's Fables are timeless little stories that capture important life lessons in a concise and rather clever way. This storybook brings those same life lessons in a more modern way. With everyday language and modern pictures, this book and these stories show their timeless quality that continues to teach and inspire all of us.
This is a fun book, some of the pictures almost look like paintings and some of them can be a little bit intense, especially the wolf one. However, that just shows the seriousness of the lying.  My kids always enjoyed these tales growing up and I know most others will too. This is a nice hardback storybook to add to your shelves.
I was provided a copy of this book from the publisher. I was not required to post a positive review, and all views and opinions are my own.
