Lion Fables
Paperback
(Mantra Lingua March 15, 1903)
the Fables from Around the World series is a fantastic way to explore the rich diversity of different cultures. Each Aesop fable is partnered with a story from another part of the world that has similar animal characters. In Aesop's The Lion and the Mouse Lion spares the life of a little mouse, never thinking that one day Mouse might save his life. In the Malaysian fable, the Hare's Revenge, Hare is fed up with the bullying Lion and finds a way to outwit him. Jan Ormerod's warm retelling and dramatic illustrations make Lion Fables a wonderful addition to any classroom. Jan is a prolific illustrator of children's books, won many honors and awards and is published in 21 countries. "This is a superb book by any standards: one of the best of the year...the retellings of the two stories are clear and simple but with enough detail and description to be enticing and full of interest. the illustrations are wonderful..." -- School Librarian 2007
