Pre/K Story Time Books (4.16.13)

Today we learned some valuable life lessons from Aesop, including:

• A little common sense is often of more value than much cunning
• Perseverance is surer than swiftness
• No one is too weak to do good
• Much wants more and loses all
• He who listens to flattery is not wise, for it has no good purpose

and, my favorite,

• Persuasion is better than force
