Sinopsis

'A good read for tweens, teens, and the entire family.' -Judi Lifton, authorIn this collection of fables and short stories, we are transported to different times and different places. Though the main characters are younger, and it is written in snippets easily accessible to young adult readers, there are lessons here for those of us far removed from that stage, as well. I was especially drawn to the family dynamics and memories of time spent with my grandmother, learning and living as a kid when the world outside that bubble pushed me to grow up way too fast. Enjoy the nostalgia, and remember what itâÇÖs like to be a kid again before life taught us that fairies donâÇÖt exist and fairytales can turn into nightmares.á- Bobbie Isabel, poet and author of The Maenad: Age of the Forgotten Ones, Book 1 áAs a teacher for four decades immersed in the tween world, I believe author Judi Lifton knows how to write stories for preadolescents. This anthology of original fables and enchanting short stories will captivate them. The fables bring a knowledge of the natural world with a highly imaginative flair. The humorous, whimsical shorts have a 'Mary Poppins' feel to them as they present relatable characters with the promise of hope. Both her fables and short stories have valuable messages, central to the pre-adolescent psyche. My favorite was 'SummerâÇÖs Day' in which personal engagement becomes the key to overcoming bias and stereotyping. I enjoyed the read, and I believe young folks will as well.- Max Willi Fischer, Y/A author of historical fiction
