"The Hare and the Tortoise" by Aesop - Frederick Warne, LOndon - ca 1871 first thus UK edition in Aunt LOuisa's London Toy Books 1 - 20cmx18cm - condition: good, original wrappers, some loosening and wera to edges, all plates present
"The Tortoise and the Hare" is one of Aesop's Fables and is numbered 226 in the Perry Index.[1] The account of a race between unequal partners has attracted conflicting interpretations. The fable itself is a variant of a common folktale theme in which ingenuity and trickery (rather than doggedness) are employed to overcome a stronger opponent.
