Forest Friends of the Banyan Tree

About this book

What if bedtime stories could shape your child's character? Inspired by the timeless wisdom of the Panchatantra, Forest Friends of the Banyan Tree brings ancient moral values to life through thirteen captivating animal adventures that children aged 8 to 12 will love — and lessons they will carry forever.

Thirteen complete stories, thirteen essential values: unity and teamwork, empathy and compassion, caring for the environment, courage, honesty, patience, hard work, equality and respect, the value of education, forgiveness, kindness, gratitude, and keeping clean.

There is a bonus too. Chapter fourteen is a complete thirty-minute stage play scripted for twelve students — ready for Annual Day, a moral science class, or a performance at home.

Each chapter closes with discussion questions, activities and worksheets, with guides for parents and teachers and exercises for building character.
