Book Reviews of Aesop's Fables

Book Review: A Must for my family
Summary: 5 Stars

Aesop's Fables are my go-to stories for helping kids endure long or unexpected waits -- gas stations, restaurants, tire rotations... knowing the fables is a powerful Mommy tool.

This is another great Aesop's fable book (Tom Lynch's is still my favorite) -- this one has about 60 fables and gives you enough ammo to get through a whole morning worth of errands. Many of the illustrations are just tiny postage stamps but the visuals are excellent no matter what the size. Plant these stories in your kids -- they will enjoy them.

I also recommend Jerry Pinkney's wordless "The Lion and the Mouse."
