Publisher's Synopsis
Stories are part of childhood. They help us grow, build our imagination, instill a sense of wonder and hope, and help us understand right and wrong. Mothers have told stories to teach children culture and tradition, moral and ritual, and behavioral consequences ever since there were mothers. In the words of Fairy Queen Titania: "Is it not the mothers who bring up the babes, and give the growing child its earliest lesson to know right from wrong?" Fairy tales and folklore provide an entertaining, imaginative way of doing just that. Lessons from Once Upon a Time is the story of Fair One and Merlina her tutor, who reads the growing princess a wonder tale each week for her education - manners, tradition, history, astronomy, and more. A wonderful book for parents to read to their children.
