Description

A facsimile of the 1912 edition, Avenel Books, New York. A new translation by Vernon Jones. With an introduction by G.K. Chesterton and illustrations by Arthur Rackam.

Yes, these are the classic fables of Aesop, the delight of chlildren for two thousand years. You know the tale of the tortoise and the hare, as well as many others. These fables are part and parcel of Western culture, on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean. Besides, kids love to read them! Sponge Bob and Harry Potter will be forgotten relatively soon; Aesop's Fables will endure for generations to come.
