Selection of La Fontaine's verse fables in which animals star in short scenes with a moral undertone; irony and observation of human customs run through both the brief pieces and the more reflective ones.

Suitable for students of French and for lovers of classical literature and poetry.
Jean de La Fontaine was a French fabulist and one of the most widely read French poets of the 17th century. He is known above all for his Fables, which provided a model for subsequent fabulists across Europe and numerous alternative versions in France, as well as in French regional languages.
