Description
The fables of Aesop have become one of the most enduring traditions of European culture, ever since they were first written down nearly two millennia ago. Aesop was reputedly a tongue-tied slave who miraculously received the power of speech; from his legendary storytelling came the collections of prose and verse fables scattered throughout Greek and Roman literature.
Tom Paxton retells ten of these morals in clever and humorous verse, including such tales as the “Lion and the Mouse” and “The Boy Who Cried Wolf.”
