It is sweet, fables of Aesop, in such practice, readable format. And the $ 1 Version 05 connected to the table of contents (TOC) is large. After reading another review, I thought it would be difficult to navigate, but the TOC, that the story takes you. The only problem is that you can access the contents inside the book, but it’s not really serious – you can always jump back to the top. Rating: 5 / 5

I always like to have the fables of Aesop, and they are all in one convenient collection here on my Kindle to my PC is just great! There are capital letters, if any, if I’m not sure what the other reviewers here did with their version. Please be assured that the problem was solved and it is easy to read. My only complaint is that the individual stories that can not click in the content, and you have to navigate to get to page, where you have to go. I still think it deserves five stars, but still, just because it’s so beautiful, all fairy tales in a place like this to have for free. You can not beat it! Rating: 5 / 5

The stories are very good and there are many of them in this book. They do not benefit all the characters in the stories and it makes it a little difficult to read. I did not like it, I think because of that. This may not bother others as it does me. Rating: 3 / 5
