Sticky flies, whirling squirrels, and plucky ducks

by Eileen M. Berry

Sticky Flies, Whirling Squirrels, and Plucky Ducks is a collection of fables from Greek, Persian, Chinese, Russian, Native American, and other cultures. In this book, you'll find stories of kings and lions, mice and squirrels, pearls and honey pots. These stories will make you laugh, and think, and learn. Ancient storytellers such as Aesop, Phaedrus, Sadi, and Krivlov designed fables to help people become a little wiser. Fables often reflect the beliefs of the people they come from. Each clever tale in this classically illustrated collection was chosen because it reflects a moral truth found in God's Word. - Publisher.
