Fables from the CRé

By Michael C F Cresswell

Fables from the CR is a compilation of 4 virtuous short stories for children of all ages.

From table tops and mountain paths, to forest roots and whispered winds, Fables from the CR gathers a collection of original tales that speak softly but deeply, as each is a mirror of human nature and the world we share.

A humble sparrow who learns the gift of balance.

A seed that chooses life over greed.

A river pebble that finds meaning in its journey.

A train that teaches patience at every stop.

Written with the timeless spirit similar to those of Aesop and the gentle insight of Buddhist parables, these modern fables invite readers of all ages to pause, reflect, and rediscover what it means to be kind, patient, and true.

Whether read aloud before bedtime, shared in classrooms, or kept by the bedside for quiet reflection, Fables from the CR is a beautifully told reminder that even the smallest acts, and stories, can help improve the way we see the world and our place in it.

Written and Illustrated by Michael C. F. Cresswell.
