Features: Read a small fable every day and easily learn life's big truths. The French fable writer La Fontaine once said, "A fable can be divided into two parts: the story told is like the body, and the lesson it gives people is like the soul." In every good fable, one can find a thought, a soul—that is the crystallization of wisdom accumulated through human struggles with nature and society. By reading these small fables, readers can draw wisdom, enlighten their thoughts, gain rich life experience, cultivate their ability to handle situations, and even change the course of their lives. The book selects nearly 400 famous fables from ancient and modern times, both Chinese and foreign. Each fable consists of two parts: "Small Fable" and "Big Truth." The "Small Fable" is full of wit and wisdom, filled with profound philosophy; the "Big Truth" highlights the essence, summarizing the valuable lessons of each fable in concise language, giving readers an enlightening reading experience. It allows readers to read a small story every day, easily learn big truths, and master the shortcut to success in joy. Additionally, we have selected over 80 images, many of which are classic illustrations drawn by artists in the 18th and 19th centuries specifically for fables. This makes the book not only valuable for reading but also for its artistic and collectible value.
