About Aesop's Fables by Aesop

Aesop's Fables or the Aesopica is a collection of fables credited to Aesop, a slave and storyteller believed to have lived in ancient Greece between 620 and 560 BCE. Of diverse origins, the stories associated with Aesop's name have descended to modern times through a number of sources. They continue to be reinterpreted in different verbal registers and in popular as well as artistic media.

Aesop Fables By Aesop Illustrated Aesop Monty Books

Lovely art if that is what you are getting it for. If you are getting it to read to you children them skip this version. I have an older edition and the language is rich, eloquent and beautiful. Why do we insist on dumbing down our children? Trust me, kids can understand dynamic language just fine. This is a poor edition.

Aesop Fables By Aesop Illustrated Aesop Monty Books Reviews

Aesop's fables have been around for two thousand five hundred years. Their morals apply to real life.

Most readers will be familiar with a handful of them such as The Fox and the Grapes and The Tortoise and the Hare. These are well-known for a reason – they are the best of them. The total collection runs to three hundred or so stories, most of which are not as well worth repeating.

However, the price is right and the good ones are true gems. They have been translated into every world language. They are short – usually half a page apiece. As a substitute teacher of foreign languages I have often used them to keep a class occupied for forty-five minutes. Most schools have minimal expectations of substitute teachers. They expect us to show a movie such as Finding Nemo in German, Spanish French or whatever to occupy the period. The kids of course go to sleep – they have seen the movie a hundred times in English. Aesop's fables is a great alternative. It keeps them awake and engaged. They might even learn something.
As a child I loved the fairy-tales and fables. I was excited when I seen this book to introduce my children to the famous Aesop's Fables.

This is a nice hardcover book with thick pages. It contains 20 of the well-known fables I learned and read as a child.They have been updated with more of a modern twist, but they are still wonderful. The illustrations in the book are spectacular. The words are not too small and not too large. At the bottom below each of the fable is the moral that the child should be learning from reading the passage. The majority of the fables are one page of writing. There are a few that have two pages. It is easy to read for young children.

There is also a CD with the Aesop's Fable book is a great resource to go along with the book. It does resource the book and advise what page the story can be found in the book.

I purchased this book for use in homeschool with a second and fourth grader. It worked great. It would also be suitable for smaller children.
As other reviewers have said, the worst thing about this is the fact that the stories have all been "updated". A lot of the charm was lost from the original stories, at least in my opinion. The morals do still remain, so it doesn't make them irrelevant. The pictures are extremely beautiful, too, so if you don't mind the changes to the story, then it's well worth a dollar.
The CD is an excellent addition to this book! While the book contains over 100 stories the CD covers 42 of the best of them and references the title of each story and the page it can be found in the book.

For parents who would like to convert the disc to MP3 files and add the story/track information here is a list of are all the stories on the CD. If you use J.

Classic Aesop's not the watered down "feel good" versions available in most copies today. Good lessons, with the original consequences. Definitely worth it if you don't want your kids to be "snowflakes" (easily melted) in the midst of adversity and the need for critical thinking and discernment.
Based on the reviews I made sure to purchase a hardback edition. However, we purchased a used edition from an independent seller. We got the 1st edition from Chronicle books, however it did not look like the pictures. I have attached some pictures to show. The Rose and the butterfly picture is included in the book but is not on the cover. Each fable is illustrated by a different artist. This is an interesting approach, but I don't always care for all the styles.

I bought this for my daughter who is 3. She's a bit young to understand the moral lesson of the fables, however this is a nice book to have in a child's library. I have been enjoying reading the fables which I hadn't read since I was a child, as now I am better able to appreciate the morals.
Lovely art if that is what you are getting it for. If you are getting it to read to you children them skip this version. I have an older edition and the language is rich, eloquent and beautiful. Why do we insist on dumbing down our children? Trust me, kids can understand dynamic language just fine. This is a poor edition.
