    Free Fables de La Fontaine for Kindle, right? What if I don’t have, and cannot afford, a Kindle?

    I understand Denise. We are a kindle family so that’s typically where we get our books but we recently learned about Google books that offers free e-books as well and located the Fables of La Fontaine for you. So see if you like it, we hope you’ll find it useful, happy reading!
