The Dog in the Manger and Other Fables

By Victoria Parker

Learning lessons, such as the importance of kindness instead of harshness or quality over quantity, is often easier through stories. Immersed in a world of talking animals, gods and goddesses, and well-turned phrases, readers will absorb important life lessons from more than a dozen of Aesop's fables. Accompanying illustrations in beautiful color add to the magic of stories like "The Dog in the Manger." As readers are introduced to new fables and read through old favorites, they'll acquire an understanding of strong character traits to help them navigate successfully in friendships, family life, and treatment of themselves.
