THE BEST OF AESOP'S FABLES

These informal retellings have the conversational quality of casual storytelling, omitting the explicit morals and sometimes concluding with a query. The italic text harmonizes beautifully with Voake's masterful line drawings, full of intriguing detail and unobtrusively tinted so that--despite their generous size and number--they never overwhelm the text. A handsome, inviting edition.
