Aesop's fables

Aesop (Author). Handford, S. A. (Stanley Alexander), 1898-1978 (Added Author). Robb, Brian, 1913-1979 (illustrator.).

Summary: "Many of these fables are so well known they have given us everyday phrases such as "sour grapes" and "dog in the manger." but even the rarer ones seem familiar, because their simple morals reflect all aspects of human nature. From the tortoise and the hare to the mouse and the lion, the timeless wisdom and wit of Aesop's fables are as entertaining as ever"--Cover verso.
