Wikipedia page about this book: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aesop%27s_Fables David Widger "Aesop's Fables" by Aesop is a collection of moral tales crafted in ancient times, likely during the 6th century BC. The fables feature various animals embodying human traits, and each story conveys a lesson about morality, ethics, and wisdom in life. The themes often revolve around justice, cunningness, and the consequences of one's actions, making the collection both entertaining and thought-provoking. The beginning of this collection introduces several fables illustrating different moral lessons. For example, in "The Wolf and the Lamb," a Wolf seeks to justify eating a Lamb by concocting false accusations, highlighting the theme that the powerful may find excuses to justify their tyranny. Another fable, "The Lion and the Mouse," emphasizes the value of mercy as a small Mouse repays the Lion's kindness, demonstrating that even the seemingly weak can provide help. Other stories continue to offer profound insights into human behavior through animal characters, emphasizing virtues and follies in various circumstances.
