Summary: My kids really love these stories!
Review: This book is full of short stories from different cultures about various virtues. While every story does not necessarily tell why a specific virtue is important, it mainly gives an example This allows me, a parent of 3 and 5 year olds, and opportunity to express why I think it is important.The stories are very thought provoking to young minds and my kids even ask questions about it later and imitate some of the humorous parts days later. Once, my 5-year old related back to me the story of Genghis Khan and his hawk. He compared to an event in his own life. I also have "The Children's Book of Heroes" and I plan to get my kids "The Children's Book of America" this Christmas.

Summary: Children's Book of Virtues
Review: This is an excellent book to read to your young ones (4+) The stories are old yet the principles are ageless. The children will curl up and live these tales. I find myself truely enjoying this special time. When they get to six or seven I would strongly recommend moving to the Book of Virtues by William J. Bennett. The stories will sweep you and the children away. MY childrens favorite time is reading these stories. They actually ask for the book and seldom does anything else draw such smiles and "Thank You Daddys". Enjoy the experience.

Summary: Great Morals, Good Stories, Well Illustrated
Review: We're on our second read through of this book of children's morality tales. With poems, short homilies and stories, Bill Bennett entertains young children as life's good lessons are imparted. The accompanying illustrations are visually delightful. Some of the stories, because of word usage, appeal to a slightly older audience than my four and five year olds, but they can appreciate most of the vignettes. A good book that helps parents in childhood instruction.
