This collection of eight fables brings Ancient Greece to life. The
stories are retold with introductions that tell the reader all about
Aesop's life as a slave and a storyteller, and explain the inspiration
that lies behind his best-loved tales. Glorious illustrations by Richard
Johnson complement Saviour Pirotta's warm and lively style, making this
a collection to treasure. It includes stories such as: The Cat's Bell;
The Dog and the Wolf; The Lion and the Mouse; The Goose who Laid the
Golden Egg; The Fox and the Crane; The Tortoise and the Hare; The Frogs
who Asked for a King; and The Jay and the Peacocks.
