These tales typically feature animals as characters who embody human traits and behaviours teaching practical life lessons through their interactions. Classic fables like "The Tortoise and the Hare" "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" and "The Ant and the Grasshopper" use simple narratives to convey enduring wisdom about virtues such as perseverance honesty and hard work. Two volumes - one in the publisher's original cloth backed pictorial paper covered boards and another rebound in cloth - housed in a cloth chemise and slip case. The pictorial boards of the rebound volume are laid down to the interior of the chemise. Externally excellent with rubbing to perimeters of paper covered boards.
