Few stories have endured as long as the fables of Aesop. In this
magnificent edition, award-winning illustrator Helen Ward has
chosen a dozen of her favourite fables to create this breath-taking
classic new collection to grace every bookshelf and bedside. The
experiences described in the tales apply to us all and the lessons
learned are both timeless and universal. Each creature comes to
symbolise in its own way some particular aspect of the human
condition - the sly fox, the silly crow, the majestic lion; all
acting out their parts, uncomprehending, in the great game of life.
Fear, greed, arrogance, stupidity, all these and more put in an
appearance, leaping straight to the heart of our understanding from
each page of this exquisitely illustrated edition. Includes the
tales: The Hare and the Tortoise, The Lion and the Mouse and The
Goose that Laid the Golden Eggs.
