Who is the father of fables?
Aesop is considered by many to be the father of fables. He was a Greek slave from the 6th Century BC who was known during his lifetime as a wonderful story teller. Most historians agree that the fables attributed to him are mostly stories he created but there are individual stories where that is questioned.

Still, some of the most widely read and loved fables are attributed to Aesop.
