Usborne Publishing Ltd Illustrated Stories from Aesop

This book is really lovely, a book that can be read to all ages and treasured as time goes on, true classic stories teaching good from bad, right from wrong. I love how all the stories are in categories from -friendship (the lion and the mouse)GREED (the goose that laid golden eggs)PRIDE (the hare and the tortoise)COMEUPPANCE (the boy who cried wolf)And even more, with lots more lessons to learn. the drawings in the book are really cute too very bright and delicate and the writting is big, making it easy to read, the stories them self are just long enough to keep children focused.

I’ve just received this for reading with my grandchildren aged 9, 8 and 5. It is perfect for all of them to learn these stories and the morals which are lessons for life. As usual this Usborne book is excellent quality in both the telling, layout of type and illustrations. It take me right back to the illustrations of my own childhood. A beautiful book, which the two older ones will already be able to read on their own but will love to also have read to them by grandma.

I've developed somewhat of an affinity to the Usbourne books. Having bought a few others from their series, i have always been impressed with the writing and illustrations they contain. The author conveys the narratives in a way that is descriptive but not convoluted. Furthermore, the books themselves are of a high quality and can withstand the rigorous handling that tends to occur when children read.For me though, the best thing about these books is that they can be used as bed time stories as well as being used for personal reading materials for the little ones.

Everything about this book is first class. I had spent some time choosing the edition I hoped would suit my grandchildren and I am so pleased I settled on this one.The lovely smooth paper, clear print,beautifully coloured pictures and the content couldn't be bettered. The stories are clear and are the next step up from the introductory picture books which started my grandchildren's interest at three years old. It really is a book to be treasured and passed on from child to child.
