The Fables of Aesop brings together some of history’s most enduring moral stories, retold with warmth and clarity by renowned folklorist Joseph Jacobs. From the determined tortoise challenging the boastful hare to the grateful lion repaying a humble mouse, each story offers a gentle reminder of values like kindness, honesty, courage, and the importance of thinking before we act.

When a humble wren challenges a mouse to a contest of strength, the clash spirals into a full-scale battle of the creatures. A young prince sets out to witness the strange conflict, only to be swept into a whirlwind of enchantment when he rescues a mighty black raven locked in combat with a deadly serpent. But the raven is no ordinary bird—and the prince’s act of kindness pulls him into a journey across nine bens, nine glens, and nine mountain moors; into the homes of mysterious sisters; and ultimately into the heart of a dangerous bargain with a relentless giant.
