Tales of Animals: a Compilation of 7 Short Character Building Stories

Publisher Marketing: This lovely family-orientated illustrated story book makes the friendly animal characters come alive as they aim to teach children moral values for everyday issues of life. It is a great tool for parents or teachers of young children to teach a valuable lesson in character building and to share those intimate moments with the children they love as they read these exciting animal stories together. The fun animal character stories compiled in this book aim to bring about change in the lives of children through character building and valuable moral lessons taught. The whole writing and illustrating of this book was a true family effort, which in itself encapsulates the essence of the aim for which the stories have been written. I, the author, would like to thank my mother Bernadette and two of my sisters, Jeane and Ronel, for illustrating the stories and giving the characters in this book faces and making them come alive. The approval and encouragement of my nephews and nieces, Josua, Kina, Mize and Mattias, throughout made the whole writing and illustrating process an enjoyable experience. Great gratitude goes to my parents, John and Bernadette, for loving me and doing an excellent job in raising me my siblings by setting an example with a good foundation of moral values. A big thank you goes to my husband, whom I love dearly, for his unconditional love for me and support in everything I do. And to my two children, Kristen and William, who give me inspiration through the joy they bring and the great love I have for them."
