Title

I'm sad that Poliphus is going to school. I'm not allowed to go. I have to stay here at home.

I am going to learn to read and write though. I will sit in the courtyard behind our house and teach myself.

I think I will read ALL of Aesop's fables. I do like them. Momus used to let me listen when he read them to Poliphus.

I will just have to stay here at home and help mother nurse our family through this DREADFUL plague that has hit the city.

The Athenians had their own doctors.

My name is Aesop. Carintha likes my stories. You can read some of my fables if you click on my LEFT hand.
