Fables of Fabulous Animals eBook: Stephen Stapley, Adam Hayes: Amazon.co.uk: Kindle Store

Product Description

Fables of Fabulous Animals describes the noticeably human affairs of family pets and other animals. Quite like Aesop’s Fables, each contains a moral, or at least, what passes for a moral. One or two of the Fables are rather poignant, but mostly the atmosphere is light, playful and pleasantly quaint.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous for kids and adults!, 3 Dec 2011

This review is from: Fables of Fabulous Animals (Kindle Edition)

It's not easy to find books that kids and adults can enjoy. In this respect, Stapley's books ranks with "The Phantom Tollbooth" and "Winnie the Pooh. These loquacious animals don't make small talk! They get right to the point of existential questions of morality in a way that will make kids giggle and adults smile. Buy this book if you have, or ever were a kid.

5.0 out of 5 stars A great read for both children and adults, 2 Dec 2011

By

Andrew - See all my reviews

This review is from: Fables of Fabulous Animals (Kindle Edition)

A well written collection of short stories from the world of animals and imagination that makes ideal bedtime reading for the very young as well as providing interesting and uplifting subject matter for early readers. I particularly enjoyed the tale of the dishevelled chinchilla, who let himself go rather badly, before the fortuitous intervention of a good woman helps him turn things around. He tidies up and...... well, I won't give away the ending, but there are presently 5 more chinchillas in the world. We use this book on the Kindle to read to a 3 year old at bedtime where it has quickly become the nightime favourite.

This review is from: Fables of Fabulous Animals (Kindle Edition)

I have to thank a friend for recommending this rather fabulous book by Stephen Stapley & illustrated by Adam Hayes. A collection of simply told fables all with a relevant and modern life lesson that is applicable to all. If you have a kindle download it now, if not, beg, borrow or steal one! Fables of Fabulous Animals is a corker and hugely enjoyable; with or without a side order of kids!
