Zatímco Ezopův život je zahalen tajemstvím, jeho příběhy o zvířatech, která jednají jako lidé, jsou celosvětově známé. Jde o jedny z nejstarších poučných příběhů vůbec. Traduje se, že Ezop byl otrokem ve starověkém Řecku a díky svému skvělému vypravěčskému umění získal svobodu. Nikdo neví, zda byl skutečnou postavou, nebo jde jen o pseudonym jiného spisovatele či skupiny spisovatelů, kteří zaznamenali jeho bajky. Dnes, stejně jako před mnoha a mnoha lety, přinášejí jeho bajky radost, ale také důležitá morální poselství malým i velkým čtenářům. Tahle knížka je představuje velmi neotřele, s velkou hravostí a vtipem, což zajisté velmi oceníte, ať už jste dítě, anebo dospělák. Pro české vydání bajky přebásnil Robin Král, překladatel, textař, básník a úspěšný spisovatel knížek pro děti.
