"Chinese children are made to learn (proverbs and maxims) by heart, and ordinary grown-up Chinamen may be almost said to think in proverbs." Professor Herbert A. Giles, 1892.

This quote from Herbert A. Giles (he compiled the first exhaustive Chinese-English dictionary in 1892) aptly describes the contents of Chinese Fables, a handsome new ebook.

This program presents the sensibility and pragmatism of Chinese culture and thought. It's a collection of tales and fables with beautiful Chinese artwork and music.

Each fable is a brief story, contained on a single page. Each story can be entertaining but each contains an implied common-sense moral - like the fables of Aesop. The morals are not spelled out thus giving food for thought to the readers in the fashion of Far East teaching method.

This download is the free trial version of Chinese Tales and Fables. The full version can be purchased for around $29.95 USD.
