Book excerpt: As The Giving Tree turns fifty, this timeless classic is available for the first time ever in ebook format. This digital edition allows young readers and lifelong fans to continue the legacy and love of a classic that will now reach an even wider audience. "Once there was a tree...and she loved a little boy." So begins a story of unforgettable perception, beautifully written and illustrated by the gifted and versatile Shel Silverstein. This moving parable for all ages offers a touching interpretation of the gift of giving and a serene acceptance of another's capacity to love in return. Every day the boy would come to the tree to eat her apples, swing from her branches, or slide down her trunk...and the tree was happy. But as the boy grew older he began to want more from the tree, and the tree gave and gave and gave. This is a tender story, touched with sadness, aglow with consolation. Shel Silverstein's incomparable career as a bestselling children's book author and illustrator began with Lafcadio, the Lion Who Shot Back. He is also the creator of picture books including A Giraffe and a Half, Who Wants a Cheap Rhinoceros?, The Missing Piece, The Missing Piece Meets the Big O, and the perennial favorite The Giving Tree, and of classic poetry collections such as Where the Sidewalk Ends, A Light in the Attic, Falling Up, Every Thing On It, Don't Bump the Glump!, and Runny Babbit. And don't miss the other Shel Silverstein ebooks, Where the Sidewalk Ends and A Light in the Attic!

Download or read book Lessons in Morals and Virtues Stories Heroes and Guidance for Children and Young Adults written by Joe Baker and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-02-22 with total page 216 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This unique book gives Christian parents a new resource for teaching morals and virtues to their children and young adults. The cool and unique feature of this book is that the moral lessons of the Bible are collected and presented by topic or subject. More than twenty topics such as honesty, justice, forgiveness, modesty, and service are discussed. Each lesson can be covered in about fifteen minutes. Illustrated Bible stories, parables, and folk stories from around the world are used to keep things interesting and to make the topics come to life. More than one hundred illustrations accompany the text. This book is much more than just a collection of stories. Instead, the stories follow an introduction of the topic and the stories serve to illustrate the points of the topic. Each story has a message and the moral of each story is discussed. To engage the readers, discussion questions follow each chapter. The chapters end with a suggested prayer. There is no job more important than parenting. But parenting takes a lot of work and a lot of time. It can be especially tough to teach life lessons to children. The good news is that this book of lessons gives you a nicely organized resource to make the teaching job easier. Although young adults can read this book on their own, this book is really intended to be read together as a family. In reading together, the messages are strengthened, shared, and commonly understood. Hopefully, the lessons will serve as a family "code of conduct" and set of values. Although many of the stories in this book could be enjoyed by toddlers, this book is really targeted at older children in the approximate age range of 7 to 15 years. There are many moral story books for kids that contain collections of timeless stories and poems that have important lessons. Of course, the most popular ever is Aesop's Fables, which contains stories like The Tortoise and the Hare. A popular story collection book is William Bennett's book, The Children's Book of Virtues, which is a nice collection of stories and poems from around the world. The color illustrations are beautiful. I read this book to my children and it is fully suitable for toddlers and older children. This book, Lessons in Morals and Virtues, differs from the "story collection" books in several ways. Story collection books are just that - story collections - and they are usually free of commentary or story analysis. Most do not use religious material or make reference to the Bible or God. So, story collection books usually do not talk about New Testament teachings such as forgiveness, loving your neighbor, or "doing unto others." This book contains lessons primarily and stories secondarily. The stories bring to life the points of the lessons. Further, the stories are discussed. This book is certainly a religious book. Bible stories are often used and Bible teachings are paramount. As the saying goes, "necessity is the mother of invention." The author wrote this book because he was looking for a book, arranged by topic, which taught the main lessons of the New Testament. Not finding such a book led to the development of this book. Of course the Bible contains the lessons. The problem is that the Bible is not arranged by lesson topic, rather it chronicles periods and events. So, if you want to learn about a topic such as jealousy, arrogance, or forgiveness, you have to dig around or use some other Bible reference guide. Parents get started right away. The lessons are here for you!

Book excerpt: We all have heard "the moral of the story is ..." and while this is not a book of Bible stories per se, these short bedtime stories do teach Christian values. Some of these stories address Lying, Humility, Kindness, Stealing, Obedience, Envy, Love, Honoring Parent's, Knowing God, Serving Others, Foul Language, Pride, etc. etc.I elected to not fill each page with illustrations or photos. Leaving you Parents to fill in the blanks, expand little imaginations and answer their questions. I intended this to be quality time spent with the kids.Note: This book is for 4-10 year-olds and probably not best for the little toddlers. My hope is that God blesses you and the children together at story time. Butch Spillman

Book excerpt: "I hesitate not to say, that I know of no work, which more happily unites instruction with entertainiment. It requires no effort of the mind to be understood, and can weary no one by a long demand of attention to a particular subject. It cannot be read without interest, and it is, in every part, calculated to leave an impression on the mind favorable to virtue, piety or benevolence." - Ashbel Green, August 1831 "This work is well calculated for young persons, and may prove in many cases, a very acceptable present to them, as it conveys much instruction, mingled with entertainment. It will also serve for a pleasing companion to the traveller. In short, it affords a copious fund of rational amusement for a leisure hour. We have no doubt but it will obtain, as it certainly merits, an extensive circulation." - the Evangelical Review By Charles H. Spurgeon's day he could tell his students that this volume was so well known and so often read by so many people that it was no longer wise to use it for illustrative purposes. THIS IS NO LONGER THE CASE. It has been out of print more than a century.

Download or read book Life Lessons written by Lawrence Webb and published by . This book was released on 2017-08-20 with total page 176 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Every experience of life holds potential for learning spiritual and moral lessons. This book looks at four areas of creative expression - stories, songs, poems, and plays - and discovers Life Lessons with spiritual and moral significance. As a Christian minister, retired university professor, lover of music, community theater actor and director, writer and editor, the author says he finds theological relevance in these four arts areas. Some contain strong, direct expressions of Christian faith, others are less direct, and still others have no obvious connection with God or things religious. Even so, he has learned from each story, song, poem, and play and offers a Life Lesson from each. Stories include The Shack and The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn. Songs include Eric Clapton's "Tears in Heaven" and "We Shall Overcome." Poems include works by William Cullen Bryant, John Milton, John Keats, and Rudyard Kipling. Theater offerings include Broadway musicals, Fiddler on the Roof and Cabaret, and straight plays, Inherit the Wind and Death of a Salesman.

Download or read book The Moral of the Story written by John H. Lockwood and published by Universal-Publishers. This book was released on 1999 with total page 120 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The problem this project attempts to solve is to develop a workable moral education in light of the clash between religious forms of moral education and U.S. Supreme Court decisions concerning them. The concept of story and storytelling has been suggested as a unifying focus for disparate prescriptions for moral education. Several recent approaches to moral storytelling have been proposed. The approaches of William Bennett, Nel Noddings, and Herbert Kohl are among those which have attempted to combine moral education and storytelling within the last decade. Bennett is identified with other theorists whose primary concern is the moral content of a story. Noddings is identified as a process theorist, whose primary concern is the process of moral storytelling, not the content. Kohl is identified as a reflection theorist, whose approach challenges tradition in the hope of creating a more moral society. Each one of these three approaches attempts to provide a comprehensive program of moral education, but they fall short of that goal. The purpose of this project, then, is to construct a storytelling moral education program that improves upon earlier approaches. Using the three levels of moral thinking posited by R.M. Hare, a three-level approach to moral storytelling is proposed. The intuitive, critical, and meta-ethical levels of moral thinking that Hare refers to are used to frame a new, three-level, approach to moral storytelling. The three-level approach combines content, process, and reflection into a unified prescription for moral education. Thus, a more comprehensive plan for moral education through storytelling is developed, one that respects traditional forms of moral education while remaining within the parameters set by the U.S. Supreme Court.
