Big Book of Aesop's Fables
(Wilco Publishing House, 2007)

Aesop's Fables Set in Verse
(H. Jerome Alter, 2011)
Here is a privately published, printed upon demand paperback book of some 153 pages after ten pages of introduction. Each fable gets a new page; a few run over onto a second page. As the back cover says, On a light note, ...
My First Book of Fables
(The Children's Press, 1949)
I had thought this book was identical internally with the book of the same title published by Collins (1950?). See my comments there. There are actually many differences. This book adds four fables for a total of fourteen. ...
Favourite Fables in Prose and Verse
(Griffith and Farran, 1870)

Aesop's Fables: A New Version Written by Munro Leaf with Illustrations by Robert Lawson. Collector's Edition. Bound in genuine leather.
(Easton, 1941)
