Illustrated Stories from Aesop

£14.00

Beautifully Illustrated
Made To Treasure

Timeless wisdom beautifully retold

This enchanting collection brings together over thirty of Aesop's most beloved fables in beautifully illustrated retellings perfect for families to share. From the classic race between the Hare and the Tortoise to the cunning Fox and the Crow, each story carries its own gentle lesson about friendship, honesty, and how we treat one another.

The stories are thoughtfully arranged by theme—chapters on Friendship, Pride, and Quarrels help children understand the different lessons these ancient tales have to offer. Giuliano Ferri's sumptuous illustrations bring each character to life, from clever foxes to noble lions, making every page a pleasure to explore together.

Presented as a luxurious padded hardback with a ribbon marker, this collection is designed to become a treasured family book that will be read and re-read for years to come. Each fable concludes with its traditional moral clearly stated, making these perfect conversation starters about values and behaviour that resonate just as strongly today as they did thousands of years ago.

Suitable for children aged 6 years and up
