«Fables de La Fontaine» is the book of fables by Jean de La Fontaine, published by Gründ in a hardcover edition and in French.
Collection of classic fables by La Fontaine in which animals star in short stories with a didactic intent. Written in verse, they combine humor and irony to show human virtues and flaws, and each tale ends with a moral. The volume brings together narratives that have moved from adult reading to school teaching.
The edition is illustrated by Jiří Trnka and belongs to the Légendes et contes series.
Suitable for young readers and for adults who want to approach the French classics: short stories, morals and an accessible tone.
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.
