Fables

"Fables" by Ronald Ross is a collection of imaginative poetry crafted in India between 1880 and 1890, revealing moral lessons through captivating stories. These allegorical tales cleverly use characters like talking animals and mythical creatures to tackle big ideas about right and wrong, genuine honesty, and what it means to be human. Each fable, with stories like "The Frog, the Fairy, and the Moon," which peers into the sadness of one-sided affection, or “The Man, the Lion, and the Fly,” which shows how silly it is to focus on enormous problems while letting little annoyances bother you, uses lively descriptions and musical language, packing each tale full of giggles and important truths. The book encourages us to consider life's challenges and the good and bad choices we face, using fantasy and unforgettable characters to provide both amusement and thoughtful lessons about values.
