ABOUT THE AUTHOR
ABOUT THE COVER
WRITE A REVIEW?
These are short stories—simple, direct, and meant to illuminate questions of character, judgment, and everyday life. They are inspired by the spirit of Aesop, adapted to modern settings.
Each fable is about 500 words and can be read in just a few minutes.
If a fable speaks to you, you might share it with a friend—or with a child. These stories are meant to be read, reflected upon, and, perhaps, discussed.
A new fable appears each Sunday.
