The Little Bat Who Wouldn’t Go to Bed by Clara Dillingham Pierson
For parents who want their little ones to sleep early, ‘The Little Bat Who Wouldn’t Go To Bed’ by Clara Dillingham will feel like a blessing. As the title suggests, it’s a story of a bat who thinks that sleep is boring and he is all about having non-stop fun. He soon learns that sleep is meant to recharge the mind and the body. If that doesn’t happen, the body will slow down and the mind will be constantly in a cranky mood. The curious little bat teaches this lesson through his own little adventure venturing in daytime which is their sleep time.
The Swallow and The Other Birds By Aesop
The Swallow And The Other Birds by Aesop serves as a great story for kids to learn that staying away from strangers is best for them. That’s the moral lesson. In the story, a swallow is the first to see that there are hemp seeds being sewn for birds to come down and feed from. The swallow warns the other birds to not fall for this trick as the people are using to lure them and capture them. It’s a story that teaches kids to listen to sound advice and not be easily tricked.
