Aesop's fables have lasted more than two thousand years because each one makes its point in a page or less, and this collection gathers a hundred and one of them.
The stories use animals as stand-ins for human behaviour: the boastful hare, the patient tortoise, the fox talking itself out of a disappointment. Every fable closes on a moral a child can repeat back, which makes the book useful for bedtime reading and for classroom discussion about honesty, patience, greed and kindness. Illustrations run alongside the tales, and the short length of each piece means a young reader can finish one without help fairly early on.
Worth noting:
• A hundred and one short fables collected in a single illustrated volume
• Animal characters whose choices carry a clear, stated moral
• Story lengths suited to bedtime reading or to independent practice
• Familiar tales that connect to proverbs children already hear in everyday speech
Good for early readers, parents reading aloud and teachers introducing moral stories, available from Boipoka.
