Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating:  out of 5 stars - Best of all
Best pictures, best stories, best-phrased conclusion of all the children's fable books out there. Each book has its own take on the story & the concluding moral. This one is clear, concise, fun, up-to-date, and also beautiful.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - Fun reading to my child
I bought this for my 4 year old. We read the stories and look at the pictures. Great little book.



Rating:  out of 5 stars - perfect for the young

In this edition, each story is told briefly, usually in one page or less.
