D Correct answer
Explanation

The sentence likely means 'The best-known fables are those attributed to Aesop.' The superlative 'best' is used here as a shortened form of 'best-known' or 'most famous'. 'Most popular' would also work but 'best' is the marked answer. 'Most popular' is grammatically correct too.
