La Fontaine si presenta come il continuatore di Esopo e Fedro e il discepolo di Epicuro; ha spesso intenzioni morali e la satira e il contrasto sono fra i suoi metodi preferiti. Fra le favole più celebri "Il gallo e la volpe", "Il corvo e la volpe", "Il gatto e la tigre". La morte è uno degli elementi ricorrenti nelle Favole, in associazione al diritto del più forte, senza però trascurare il senso di solidarietà e di pietà verso gli infelici. Forse una delle morali complessive delle Favole è l'accettazione completa della natura umana.

Some of the stories are simply short stories or novelettes, allowing for those who have only a little time for books to enjoy stories like everyone else.

Thirteen award-winning fantasy and science fiction writers offer up their versions of these classic fairy tales as well as other favorites, including The Ugly Duckling, Ali Baba, Hansel and Gretel, and more. Some of the stories are funny, some are strange, and others are dark and disturbing - but each offers something as unexpected as a wolf at the door.
