Ezopovy krátké příběhy o zvířatech s důležitým morálním poselstvím byly písemně zaznamenány až ve 3. století před Kristem. V římském prostředí se jim pak dostalo veršované formy. K nejznámějším z nich patří Sněm zvířat, Havran a liška, Lev a myš nebo Liška a čáp. Jednotlivá zvířata v bajkách vždy představují jednu konkrétní lidskou vlastnost a krátká forma příběhu spěje k ponaučení platnému v jakékoli době, neboť lidská mentalita se časem vůbec nezměnila. Ezopovy bajky jsou zábavné, mají živý spád, svižné tempo, vtip, svěžest, ale především svoji moudrost. Dnes už patří ke světovému literárnímu dědictví a známe je i díky množství často velice krásných a nádherně ilustrovaných vydání.

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.
