Does anyone know of a ebook version of Aesop's Fables with ALL the fables? The book linked on the group self ”includes 600 fables”. There is a link to a ebook version but that ”only” has 300-some fables. Project Gutenberg has a slightly different version also with around 300 fables. Does anyone know a version with more fables than 300 preferably 600+?

Does this help? http://mythfolklore.net/aesopica/oxfo...Not an ebook, but you can read them for free online.
No, I want something to put in an ereader.Here is one version with is very old-fashioned English:

I would like a newer one. (English is not my first language), but maybe other will find it useful.
If you have a Kindle this version seems at least close to complete: http://www.amazon.com/Aesops-Fables-O...
After having searched some, I have settled for this edition:Aesop's Fables by Aesop Arthur Rackham (Illustrator), G. K. Chesterton (Introduction), V.S. Vernon Jones (Translator)

Ebook free download here:

It is a different and slightly longer version than the one linked to from the main edition book page
