The tales of Kalila and Dimna originated almost 2000 years ago in a Sanskrit collection of animal stories called the Panchatantra, and have influenced modern fables from The Arabian Nights to The Canterbury Tales. Graced with Margaret Kilrenny's beautiful illustrations, the first two books of the Panchatantra's five are brilliantly rendered here by Ramsay Wood.
