Bookroo's summary

Dive into a world of timeless fables where trickery and disguise unravel life's essential truths.

With colorful illustrations bringing these stories to life, readers will explore the consequences of deceit and the wisdom of honesty. What truths will you uncover in these enchanting tales?

From the publisher

Playing tricks can get people into trouble quickly–especially if they lie, such as in the story of “The Boy Who Cried Wolf.” In “The Donkey in the Lion’s Skin,” it’s clear that no matter what you wear on the outside, if you’re foolish, it will still show when you speak. Through these fables and many others, readers will be introduced to life lessons in an accessible way. Full-color illustrations of each fable add a bit of fun and fancy to some stories’ more serious morals.
