Who Is Behind FableReads

FableReads has been initiated and funded by Anders Sundelin through Sundelin Development AB, based in Sweden. The fables are curated and illustrated by people all over the world coordinated by Leah May Autentico and Angel Julie Sevilla, based in the Philippines, who have also built the website. Anders' two elementary-aged daughters Eleonore and Sophie have also provided constant feedback. Do you want to contribute to FableReads? Review fables translated to your language?
