Excerpt from Fables From Afar
Most of the fables in this little book are very old - older than the well-known Æsop's fables. For hundreds and hundreds of years the children in far-off lands have listened to them with pleasure.
It is in the hope that you will enjoy them as much as the children of long ago in India, China, Japan, and the Isles of the Sea that this little collection of the old, old stories has been made.
