Book 3 Living Happily Ever Afterwards
|
|
“And they lived happily ever after” is not just the promise of fairy tales. It is the major character education lesson of the enduring international folktales retold in this book. The overarching theme of the book is that virtue leads to happiness. The designs of evil people, witches, and sorcerers are defeated in the end; kind people, good fairies, wise rulers, and noble princesses earn their “happily ever afters” through solid virtues of character. This is the first “read alone” book of the series, with a separate student textbook of stories and a teacher’s manual full of thought-provoking discussions, activities, and exercises that draw out of the lessons of these beautiful multicultural tales. |

The Lost Ax Long ago in China, a farmer was going outside to do his morning chores. "he needed to chop some wood for the fire." He reached for his ax, behind the door where he always kept it. It was not there… "Someone has stolen it," the farmer thought. He went outside. There was his neighbor, standing near the farmer’s property. Right away, the farmer felt suspicious. His neighbor kept his back to him. The farmer thought, “He stole my ax. That is why he will not face me.”
