Aesopica

Looking for some fun extra-biblical Greek reading to sharpen your skills? I often recommend Lucian of Samasota (start with the True Histories), but then there is also Aesop!
Some of you are probably aware of this website:

Aesop is good because the stories are short and filled with lots of fun vocabulary, which can function as a review as well as learning words you never knew were in the language. I'm reading the verse versions by Babrius and then the prose versions in Chambry. Enjoy (should you decide to do this)!
Notice also for Latin enthusiasts Phaedrus is included.
