New View of Old Fables

By Stanley Markman

The stories in this book are familiar fables told in a humorous manner. Each has a valuable message: the harmfulness of greed as in the story of Midas or the arrogance of the Hare in the Hare and the Rabbit; the lies of the boy shepherd of the Fake alarm which caused him an unpleasant life. Each story has a moral message that can readily be discussed with children.
