Three Aesop Fox Fables by Paul Galdone is a delightful picture book anthology that brings to life three classic Aesop fables, each featuring the wily but often outsmarted Fox. This charming collection includes The Fox and the Grapes, The Fox and the Stork, and The Fox and the Crow, with each story offering a gentle moral lesson alongside Galdone’s signature lively illustrations. Perfect for young readers and families to share, the book captures the humour and wisdom of these age-old tales in an accessible, beautifully illustrated format.
In the first two fables, the Fox’s overconfidence leads to his downfall as he’s outwitted by cleverer creatures. However, in The Fox and the Crow, he finally enjoys a clever moment of his own, teaching readers about the power of flattery and wit. Galdone’s engaging retellings and expressive artwork make this a timeless addition to any child’s bookshelf, preserving the simple wisdom of Aesop’s stories for new generations.
