Aesop's Fables / The Arabian Nights (Companion Library) (c.2) by Mamoru Funai
The translated or retold stories are straight-forward, but the editor often chose to use English proverbs as his "Applications", some of which were not particularly applicable; it seems redundant to use an idiomatic phrase to explain a fable.
(See review & comments to other editions of the Fables.)
