Once in a Wood

Eve Rice
(Young Lions)
978-0006720904, RRP £1.75, Paperback
5-8 Infant/Junior
Buy "Once in a Wood: Ten Tales from Aesop (Lions)" on Amazon

Ten of Aesop's fables simply told and presented with black and white pictures and in clear, large print. The poorer quality paper in this paperback means that the clarity and satisfying black and white contrasts of the Bodley Head hardback are not so evident; but the humour of Eve Rice's illustration remains complementing the fables and bringing out the fun in them. Good value for infant and junior classrooms.
