The BOOK OF VIRTUES

The BOOK OF VIRTUES Review



This book was recomended to me by a friend and colleague. As a high school English teacher, I am always on the hunt for supplemental materials to add to my lesson plans in order to help my students engage in more meaningful ways. I would highly recommend this book to other teachers, as it has wide a variety of stories, poems, etc that would be appropriate for all grade levels. This book is fabulous for non teachers as well due to the wide variety of material in the book.

The BOOK OF VIRTUES Overview


Responsibility. Courage. Compassion. Honesty. Friendship. Persistence. Faith. Everyone recognizes these traits as essentials of good character. In order for our children to develop such traits, we have to offer them examples of good and bad, right and wrong. And the best places to find them are in great works of literature and exemplary stories from history.

William J. Bennett has collected hundreds of stories in The Book of Virtues, an instructive and inspiring anthology that will help children understand and develop character -- and help adults teach them. From the Bible to American history, from Greek mythology to English poetry, from fairy tales to modern fiction, these stories are a rich mine of moral literacy, a reliable moral reference point that will help anchor our children and ourselves in our culture, our history, and our traditions -- the sources of the ideals by which we wish to live our lives. Complete with instructive introductions and notes, The Book of Virtues is a book the whole family can read and enjoy -- and learn from -- together.
