More Jataka Tales

"More Jataka Tales" by Ellen C. Babbitt is a children's book filled with stories based on old Indian Jataka tales, which are about the past lives of the Buddha as different beings. It expands on an earlier collection with more tales designed to teach kids important lessons through fun storytelling. Here, readers meet characters like a smart Girl Monkey who causes trouble for a queen, three helpful Fishes who work together to survive, and a courageous Little Bowman who shows that bravery isn't about size. Throughout the collection, the characters face many challenges where the consequences of being greedy, clever, or kind teach lessons about being good and making smart choices. Each of these exciting adventures, complete with lovely pictures, makes learning about morals very enjoyable and helps kids think about what is right and wrong.
