A great baby shower gift that I am looking forward to giving Review: Usbourne did it again - I've developed somewhat of an affinity to the Usbourne books. Having bought a few others from their series, i have always been impressed with the writing and illustrations they contain. The author conveys the narratives in a way that is descriptive but not convoluted. Furthermore, the books themselves are of a high quality and can withstand the rigorous handling that tends to occur when children read. For me though, the best thing about these books is that they can be used as bed time stories as well as being used for personal reading materials for the little ones. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 8,928 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 16 in Anthologies & Collections of Fairy Tales, Folk Tales & Myths for Children 38 in Greek & Roman Tales & Myths for Children 295 in Classics for Children | | Customer Reviews | 4.8 out of 5 stars 1,176 Reviews | ## Images ![Usborne Illustrated Stories from Aesop: A Beautifully Illustrated Collection of Timeless Fables for Children (Illustrated Story Collections) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71K+PxQIvNL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great baby shower gift *by N***3 on 22 April 2026* Very pleased with this book it is very well made, expensive looking, bright and colourful.

I had spent some time choosing the edition I hoped would suit my grandchildren and I am so pleased I settled on this one. The lovely smooth paper, clear print,beautifully coloured pictures and the content couldn't be bettered. The stories are clear and are the next step up from the introductory picture books which started my grandchildren's interest at three years old. It really is a book to be treasured and passed on from child to child. ## Frequently Bought Together - Illustrated Stories From Aesop - Usborne Illustrated Grimm's Fairy Tales - Illustrated Hans Christian Andersen's - Fairy Tales --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.us/products/53903244-usborne-illustrated-stories-from-aesop-a-beautifully-illustrated-collection-timeless](https://www.desertcart.us/products/53903244-usborne-illustrated-stories-from-aesop-a-beautifully-illustrated-collection-timeless) --- *Product available on Desertcart United States of America* *Store origin: US* *Last updated: 2026-07-17*
