Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This collection of cautionary tales and adaptations of familiar stories from author Henry Altemus is a response to the demand for children's literature that balances entertainment with moral lessons. Like the classic story of the Three Little Pigs, these tales focus on themes of wisdom, courage, and the consequences of rash actions. Although Altemus' book can be situated within the tradition of European fairy tales, these stories differ from those written by Hans Christian Andersen or the Brothers Grimm. Altemus's tales do not feature magic or other elements of the fantastic; instead, they feature human characters and realistic situations. This approach allows readers to more easily relate to the stories and the lessons they teach. The author uses the idea of a 'clever' character, the foil to the protagonist, to highlight the importance of wisdom when facing challenges. These clever characters often employ trickery and deceit to achieve their ends but invariably come to a sticky end. In this way, the book encourages readers to consider the long-term consequences of their actions and the value of honesty and integrity. The tales in this book are not only entertaining but also offer valuable lessons for children of all ages. They teach the importance of being brave, being kind, and being wise. They also show that it is important to learn from our mistakes and that we should never give up on our dreams. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
