Aesop’s De Rana et Bove

I’ve started a Latin resource for Aesop’s Fables and hope to publish it in the summer. In the meantime, I’ll be posting the Latin text of the fables with their vocabulary every couple of days. Look forward to the book sometime in July or August. In the meantime check out my other published works here:
