50 Indian Moral Stories for Children [Kindle Edition]
Book Description Publication Date: November 9, 2013 Folktales are stories that have been handed down through the ages, bonding the past with the present. These stories were written to entertain; to create awe and wonder; to provide answers to unanswerable questions and to instill a sense of morality. This book provides a glimpse into the Indian culture, one of the oldest societies on earth and one with a rich, diverse and extraordinary history. These eternal legends were written at the beginning of human civilization and are rife with the messages and stories of Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism, but they still bear significance today and can be read and enjoyed with any religion and culture in mind.

My 9 year old daughter and I have been enjoying these stories a lot. This is her first time heading Indian folk tales so she is extremely attentive when I read them to her. I have only heard a couple of Indian folk tales from friends so it is nice to have stories to read that are new to me as well. Since the book includes 50 stories I have no trouble finding a tale with a moral that I really want her to listen to and remember (my favorites are team work and sharing). What I love most about this book is that the moral of the story is clearly defined at the end of each folk tale. That is very helpful to a parent who wants their child to read the book without aid but still understand the moral.

I loved this book and recommends it for any age.

October 7, 2013 By Katelyn Birge Format:Kindle Edition|Amazon Verified Purchase I enjoyed this collection of stories immensely. I especially liked how the author told us the time period and the area in India where the story came from. I highly recommend this book for all ages, not just children.
