What reviewers said
"Waters deftly adds a contemporary tone in description and dialogue to her smooth rendering of 60 familiar and less-well-known tales. . . . With its many comic touches, this anthology presents once again the humor, folly, ingenuity, and wisdom that make Aesop so durable."
"This combination of straightforward language and winking illustrations is a winning one that begs to be read aloud at either bedtime or in storytime and would be ideal in a classroom setting."
