Accompanied by beautiful color illustrations, this beautiful
collection of Aesop's Favorite Fables is sure to ignite young
imaginations and teach them virtue, kindness, integrity,
problem-solving, happiness, and what it means to be human. Passed
down for thousands of years, Aesop's Fables is a collection of
moral stories by the famed storyteller from ancient Greece.
Reprinted and translated thousands of times over the past two
millennia, this collection represents some of the most widely known
and famous children's literature. Many of these fables bestow human
traits upon animal characters and place them in human situations to
highlight desirable and less desirable traits. Their intent,
through the telling of these tales, is to teach readers important
moral lessons such as "Self-help is the best help" or "Do not
attempt too much all at once.". Boys and girls and parents will
enjoy reading: The Wolf and the Kid * The Tortoise and the Ducks *

The Town Mouse and the Country Mouse *The Lion and the Mouse * The
Shepherd Boy and the Wolf* The Sheep and the Pig * The Travelers

A Christmas Carol has been credited with restoring the holiday
to one of merriment and festivity in Britain and America after a
period of sobriety. First published on 19 December 1843, it tells
the story of sour and stingy Ebenezer Scrooge's ideological,
ethical, and emotional transformation resulting from supernatural
visits from Jacob Marley and the Ghosts of Christmas Past, Present,
and Yet to Come. The novella met with instant success and critical
acclaim.
