Aesop's Fables, or the Aesopica, is a collection of fables credited to Aesop, a slave and storyteller believed to have lived in ancient Greece between 620 and 564 BCE.

While he may have created many of the stories, there are a number that are ascribed to him that originated before his time, or came from outside of Greece, and many have continued to be added on to his legacy long after his death.

There are nearly 600 fables under Aesop's name - The Wolf in Sheep's Clothing is a story of how the trickery of the wicked can lead to their own end.

This version is suitable for all ages and a lovely story to fall asleep to while learning that liars never prosper.
