Chinese Fables collects nineteen of these wonderful tales, some of them dating back to the third century BCE, and retells them in contemporary English for a modern audience. Each of these stories offers a nugget of ancient folk wisdom and shares aspects of Chinese culture and lore. All of the tales express the foibles and wisdom of human experience with great humor and affection. And although the lessons are universal, the wit and flavor are uniquely Chinese. 650 0 Virtues|vJuvenile literature. 650 0 Fables, Chinese|vTranslations into English|vJuvenile literature. 650 0 Tales|zChina|vJuvenile literature. 700 1 Tay-Audouard, L.
