The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse - Hardcover

"The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse" is attributed to the ancient Greek fabulist Aesop, born circa 620 BC. It was conveyed through the ages; by the twelfth century, medieval Europe had written copies. Jean de La Fontaine included it in his first collection of tales in 1668 in France. In most versions, the safety of a humble abode and contentment in the simple life are championed.
