Book Reviews of The Book of Virtues: A Treasury of Great Moral Stories
Book Review: A simple and endearing guide for loving parents...
Summary: 5 Stars
I found this book to be an outstanding collection of fables, moral stories, and simplistic yet thought-provoking poetry....It rekindled the fondness of my youth, and gave me so much to pass on to my child through the molding of his morality and spirituality.....It is truly delightful!!! One note...For those that did not enjoy it please express yourself intelligently. Gag does not end in the letter e. Book Review: Great stories compiled into one volume
Summary: 5 Stars
Bennett takes some of the most charming short stories and poems and puts them together in a book that is wonderful to pull off the shelf. (No need to read the whole book, just a story or two at a time.) Right now my 7-year-old daughter is in love with the book, and she loves to read stories before she goes to bed. I started to read to her from this books last year, and she just gets a kick out of the moral lessons she learns. From The Tortoise and the Hare to other familiar (as well as not-so-familiar) tales, this has to be a classic. I wonder if there is any chance Mr. Bennett would consider returning to public service?Book Review: The book of virtues
Summary: 5 Stars
This book should be a standard read in schools all across this nation of ours. It would help to raise the responsibility factor of people. In other words people may stop blaming others for their own mistakes and take responsibility for their own actions.Book Review: ATTENTION ALL CLERGY. . .
Summary: 5 Stars
Buy this book, if for no other reason than for the wonderful sermon illustrations it provides!An uplifting and inspiring read. I highly recommend it.
Book Review: Decidedly Dull
Summary: 2 Stars
How many of you found sermons vastly entertaining as children? Do you think they'd be more entertaining if in the confines of a book? Victorianate horror(such as the previously mentioned ill fated door slammer poem), prattling on about the often obscure, abstracted moral of the story, do not an interesting book make. Often, the book makes a joke of itself, droning on about *serious* morals drawn from *silly* stories. I gave this book two stars because Bennette obviously put some amount of effort into this book, and I believe that deserves some merrit, sadly, there is not much else in this book that I can congradulate him on.
