Über diesen Titel

Críticas:

A delightfully illustrated book to pick and choose fables, or just read all the way through, while enjoying the vibrant colours of Africa in Aesop's world.

(Armadillo Magazine)

Get hold of this book and treat yourself to a masterclass in witty, tender and tough story telling... Treat this book as a collection of easy to read stories, as a re-telling of some ancient fables, as a witty comment on talking animals, as stories to share with 6 to 60 year olds, as lessons for the living... it will not disappoint, and will draw you back again and again.

(School Librarian)

‘It’s a summer of Classics for Frances Lincoln Children’s Books with a selection of well-known and popular classic stories re-told and illustrated by award-winning and respected authors and illustrators... Aesop’s Fables 

(Armadillo Magazine)

‘I was blown away by the loveliness of the illustrations in this gorgeous book. I just had to flick right through and enjoy them all before settling down to read the fables. And I wasn't disappointed - the quality of the storytelling is equally captivating... what sets the book apart is the fact that they are portrayed in an African setting - and the illustrations reflect this too. This adds a new level of interest to the familiar and the end result is superb.’

(Parents in Touch)

‘the collection shows the wealth of output Aesop had’
