Fables

They may not have the intricacy of fairy tales, but fables pack a punch. Their wisdom and insights about human behavior may seem old hat to adults, but they are important concepts and lessons about right and wrong behavior for children.

And, as an added bonus for bedtime reading, they tend to be short. These are a great choice when your child begs for “just one more story.”

Myths

Every ancient culture developed stories to explain natural phenomena such as why the sun rises in the morning and why there are stars in the sky. Passed down orally from generation to generation, myths provide a glimpse of how humans understood the world thousands of years ago in various parts of the world. Roman, Greek, and Norse myths introduce children to a pantheon of gods and goddesses who resemble the superheroes of today.

Myths expand and enrich your child’s imagination while also providing them the original sources of concepts that percolate through our language and culture. Everything from an “Achilles’ heel” to the source material for Romeo and Juliet can be found in myths.
