Aesop's fables

A friend's DD is being baptised in a couple of weeks and I was thinking of getting her a book of Aesop's fables or something similar. Had a look on Amazon but it's difficult to tell which ones are good quality editions in terms of look and feel. Can any of you recommend one? Budget is probably about £15 give or take a few quid.

Would also welcome recommendations for other books.

Thanks

The version retold by Michael Morpurgo and illustrated by Emma Chichester Clark is lovely. See here.

Thanks for that. A couple of the reviews actually recommend it as a christening present so it sounds like a safe bet.
