This book is a collection of the time-honored stories of Aesop as seen through the eyes of artists with developmental disabilites. These tales, with their vibrant and expressive art, capture profound truths about the lives of the men and women who created them. Includes a foreword by Sean Penn. Imagine a group of mentally and physically disabled people who dare to tell the tales of Aesop and create the accompanying artwork. Then imagine a famous actor, Sean Penn, coming down to their work site. Sean was impressed by his experience--enough so that he wrote the foreword to this book. And what a loving and teaching book it is. Each disabled person tells a story and then tells what it means to him or her at a personal level. The project was a major positive happening in many ways. Many gained from it at L.A. Goal, and many more normal children will profit by reading this book. We rated it a high five hearts. -- Heartland Reviews, April-June, 2005
