One Hundred Wisdom Stories Paperback – February 18, 2011

Great collection of wisdom stories from a broad base of cultural and religious traditions. Stories are short, and concise. Most stories are about one and half pages long a couple are longer. I use these stories often at church for "story time" during worship services. Kids love the stories and find them very approachable - adults love them too.

Ms Silf has collected classic tales from many lands and traditions and presented them in a format that is great for storytelling. Great resource for teachers and also for those who have not yet discovered these timeless tales.

The product is very good

We're using this in a book club. Each person reads a story and then we discuss our reactions to it. So far, it's been delightful.

I like these short thought provoking stories. I also gave it away as a gift.

I got a lot out of this little book. Many of the stories struck a cord, they are in the tradition of Anthony de Mello. A few were perhaps more conservative than my taste would like but there was plenty to keep me reading

I was recommended to buy this book by my curate. I use it for preaching at family services and have also used it as short stories for my son. The tales are easy to read and imaginative. Some of them are known from other versions but the writing is dramatic and imaginative and suitable for all. The cover isnt the most original in the world...but we shouldnt judge a book by its cover!

A variety of stories which has a moral bent

Not as good as I thought it would be

Great book. Did not disappoint.

Some brilliant short stories with redemptive wisdom mixed in with the metaphors and aphorisms.
