    One of my Top Ten Books

    When I was little, Catholic school (in 2nd grade) taught these virtues right along with academics. Decades later, when I had children of my own, I was fortunate enough to find a great series (animated) called "Adventures from the Book of Virtues” which helped me teach them personal morals. Finally, when I had grandchildren, I realized that the television series had been based on this book, and I was lucky to find a copy. Now, my 4th-grader reads aloud to me 1/2 hour a day so that he can improve his reading skills -- and learn a few important lessons about character while doing so. Buy a copy if you have young children or grandchildren. It's a wonderful compilation of short stories and poems that is timeless...

  • A Virtuous Collection

    The book is an anthology of writings, fables and poems about virtues. The book need not be read in any order. Choose a virtue and explore with a child picking a short piece of writing exploring that the virtue. Most of the pieces can be read on different levels. Such as the tale of George Washington not telling a lie. As an adult I was taken by the wisdom of Washington's father which previously had escape me.

  • Great book

    I used to read this book to my children. It was lost through the years. I bought the book so I can read it to my grandson. It is a wonderful book.

  • Entertaining, interesting and educational.

    Wonderful and insightful stories of moral lessons. Great instructional value for children and as entertaining as fairy tales. But these are stories about real life. Nice to know that you can share these stories, poems and fables as a way of continuing bedtime stories for older kids. The brief comments that Mr. Bennett introduces each story or poem with are helpful. Leave this book out where kids can read it by themselves too, and you may be surprised to find them read it on their own. Don't overlook the companion volume to this book. It's even better than the first. I would recommend all of William Bennett's books. I also recommend Hendrik Van Loon's History and Geography that he wrote for his nephews. These were written in the 1930's and are full of information you may not find elsewhere. ...
