The Baby’s own Aesop: being the fables condensed in rhyme with portable morals pictorially pointed by Walter Crane. Aesop, was a slave and story-teller who lived in ancient Greece between 620 and 560 BCE. This book takes a collection of the popular fables and sets them to rhyme. Originally published in the late 1800s and adapted and Illustrated by Walter Crane, Baby’s Own Aesop is one of several very colorful books published about that time which changed the notion of what a children’s book could be. The art in this book was digitally touched-up from scans taken from a copy of the original book. In no way will we pretend that this is a perfect restoration, however you will discover that the colors and the lifework are remarkably free of artifacts and are very vibrant.
