Project Gutenberg 2006-12-02 Public domain in the USA. 2490 Aesop Æsop Aisopos Winter, Milo 1888 1956 Winter, Milo Kendall The Aesop for Children With pictures by Milo Winter Produced by Jason Isbell Christine D. and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "The Aesop for Children" by Aesop is a collection of fables intended for a young audience, likely compiled in the early 20th century. This timeless work presents a series of moral tales that convey important life lessons through engaging animal characters and their adventures. Each fable typically concludes with a succinct moral that imparts wisdom on human nature and behavior. At the start of this fable collection, several stories are introduced, including that of a little Kid who, despite being left alone and terrified of a Wolf, cleverly asks the Wolf to play a tune to enjoy his last moments. The opening segment illustrates the themes of foolishness and consequences through various characters: the Kid's arrogance and resulting peril, the Tortoise's longing for adventure that leads to disaster, and the Young Crab's inability to offer sound advice to his mother due to their shared inability to walk straight. Through these narratives, readers are encouraged to reflect on the morals of humility, the dangers of vanity, and the importance of leading by example. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
