Aesop For Children
Free AppAbout Aesop For Children
The Aesop for Children interactive book is designed to be enjoyed by readers of any age. The book contains over 140 classic fables, accompanied by beautiful illustrations and interactive animations.
“Aesop's Fables”—also called “the Aesopica”—are a collection of stories designed to teach moral lessons credited to Aesop, a Greek slave and story-teller thought to have lived between 620 and 560 BCE.
Aesop's fables are some of the most well known in the world and have been translated in multiple languages and become popular in dozens of cultures through the course of five centuries. They have been told and retold in a variety of media, from oral tradition to written storybooks to stage, film and animated cartoon versions—even in architecture.
The fables remain a popular choice for moral education of children today. Younger scholars will be able to trace the origin of aphorisms such as “sour grapes” and “a bird in the hand.”
This interactive ebook is presented by the Library of Congress, adapted from the book “The Aesop for Children: with Pictures by Milo Winter,” published by Rand, McNally & Co in 1919. This work is considered to be in the public domain in the United States.

The app seems really cool, but is probably tablet only. The text and images are tiny on my phone. This leaves the app unusable on my phone.

Very small text. Unreadable on Galaxy 7. Uninstalled immediately. Looks like it would be good if readable. Sad.

Like many other reviewers the content is too small to read I have to screen shot every story so I can zoom in enough to read the font.

I could not read the small print on this app. I could not zoom to make the print bigger. I could not rotate my phone sideways to make the print bigger. I'm only rating on inability to read and not the content of this app as I could not read it.

A faithful and interactive version meticulously assembled by the LOC. Unfortunately, the display is too small for my Nexus. There doesn't appear to be an option to zoom or view horizontally. It looks great on my wife's iPad, though. I assume it works just as well on other tablets too.

Terrible app. No sound and print is soooo small even 20/20 eyes can't read it. Deceiving app. Uninstalling immediately!
