Aesop’s fables. You must be ooooooooooold.
I’m betting there aren’t 1000 Americans under age 40 that have read Aesop’s fables. Maybe they should make them into a video game for iphone.
I was born in 1958, and in my youth, Aesop’s fables were a stable for me and most of my friends.
It is stunning the wisdom of the elderly and the ancients that modern Americans have failed to pass on to their children. Of course, there is a concerted effort of the schools NOT to pass this wisdom on to children, lest they value their lost liberty and wonder what rights they have.
Aesop’s fables should be required reading for all 5th graders.
If you’ve got kids or grandkids here’s a great site:

The stories are well told without the liberal yah, yah. These classics, along with Aesops and the Bible, build great cultures and people.
