This book is a series of twenty short funny or nonsense excerpts or stories for children of all ages to enjoy and learn a truth. It lightly touches the importance of play, pets, self esteem, old age, how to handle sadness, self-control, meaning in life and other subjects. There are colorful little pictures to help the very young follow the text and meanings. The pictures are simple. The excerpts are not really stories, fables, nor lessons, but contain a little of all these. Adults and children alike find the first reading hard to put down. This is the first in a series. The stories can be zany and wild, sober and somber, endearing and right down ridiculous. There will be something for everyone. Enjoy, have fun, and think a bit more.
