A re-telling of Aesop's classic moral tales - some well-known and some almost unknown. Full of rhythm, rap and humour and supported by vibrant and subversive illustrations.

Vivian French was best known at school for being extremely weedy, and for talking a lot.
She continued her attachment to words by becoming first an actor, then a story-teller and
finally a writer of children's books ... she's not sure how many she's written (she's not
good at maths), but it's somewhere around two hundred. Many of them are for sevens
and under, but she does write for older children too - and also non-fiction, which she says
is very exciting because you find out so many things you never knew about.
At the moment Vivian is writing books about Princesses, Draglins, Egyptians and
Chocolate - oh, and a frog obsessed sorceress. (If she's not working on at least five
books at the same time she worries she'll never be asked to write again.)
She does rather too much travelling in order to swap ideas about books and writing with
children and adults, and this often makes her late delivering the books she's meant to be
writing. (If any publishers are reading this, she's very sorry!)
She lives in Edinburgh, and has four grown up daughters ... and she's a lot less weedy.
She still talks a lot, though.

We list via barcode/ISBN so please note that the images are stock images and may not be the exact copy you receive, furthermore the details about edition and year might not be accurate as many publishers reuse the same ISBN for multiple editions and as we simply scan a barcode or enter an ISBN we do not check the validity of the edition data when listing.

We aim to dispatch prompty, the service used will depend on order value and book size. We can ship to most countries, see our shipping policies. Payment is via Abe only.
