Sad Pand (A Hundred Parables)

Sad Pand (A Hundred Parables)

The main source of the book was Aesop’s Fables translated by Mirzā Ali Asghar Khān in 1905. The translator has translated the source freely changing some parts of the plots and descriptions. The book was published to be taught to second-grade students. The language of the book is close to the vernacular and away from the ornate language popular at the time.
