| Publisher Description: A Child's Book of Values is a collection of stories from different cultures around the world, each story illustrating a different virtue. Fairy tales, fables, parables, examples, stories, epigrams, epic poems, ballads--all have transmitted the science of life from generation to generation since the remotest times. They not only educate the individual but mold the thoughts of a people. The twenty-six stories come from many cultures, but as the case with most good literature, they are universal. With engaging full-color illustrations and clever design elements, this is a book to pick up and read to little ones and to give to middle schoolers to read themselves. School libraries will find this to be a wonderful addition to their collection. Among the stories readers will find: George Washington and the Cherry Tree (Story from the U.S.A.): Honesty The Elves and the Shoemaker (Brothers Grimm: Justice In the Sand and on the Rock (Arab Folk Tale): Peace The Emperor's New Clothes (Hans Christian Andersen): Sincerity Now We Will See What Time Brings Us (Chinese Folk Tale): Hope Download the free app (Android and IOS) in this interactive edition to see action, pictures, games, and other surprises in many of the stories, which will delight children. |
