A delightful collection of Aesop's Fables densely illustrated in black and white and colour plates by the humorous and delightful drawings of Nora Fry. Pook Press celebrates the great Golden Age of Illustration in children's literature. Many of the earliest children's books, particularly those dating back to the 1850s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. Pook Press are working to republish these classic works in high quality, colour editions, using the original text and artwork so these works can delight another generation of children.

Autorenporträt
AESOP (c. 620-564 BCE) was a Greek storyteller credited with a collection of fables that have come to be known as Aesop's Fables. Little is known of his life, although ancient sources suggest that he might have been a slave who, by his cleverness, acquired freedom and became an adviser to kings and city-states.
