Description

One of the most celebrated traditions of European culture, this collection of prose and verse written by a tongue-tied Greek slave uses humble set-ups to reveal deep truths. Old favorites like "The Tortoise and the Hare" and "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" sit by by side with lesser-known gems such as "The Dove and the Ant" and "The Eagle and the Arrow." Though Aesop (if he was real) lived so long ago he was a contemporary of Buddha, and even Socrates was a fan, modern readers continue to be charmed by his cast of animals living out every imaginable human foible.
