Wisdom's Way

Wisdom's Way: Tales, Treasures, Truths is not a novel, how-to book, or even direct counsel on wisdom. It is a collection of over fifty original short stories (by the author), ranging from about a half of a page to thirteen pages in length. Although simply written and appropriate reading for children and young adults, these stories are intended for a wide age range with true comprehension based on depth of understanding. Through questioning and symbolism, most stories present multiple viewpoints, attitudes, and perspectives for relation and application to personal, moral, and social issues and many other aspects of life. Therefore, this is not a rush through, quick read kind of book; the value in each of these stories is found through thoughtful contemplation and meditation. Many different writing styles have been incorporated in these stories, so stories often differ quite widely one from another. Writing styles include: old time folk tale, fable, parable, question and answer, cause and effect, poetic, descriptive event, modern situational, and observational.
