Charmingly told and full of meaning, these extensive Jataka Tales will entertain both young and old. These are the famous tales from the Buddha. Each tale tells a moral story and brings the reader a joyful anecdote. "The Jataka tales contain deep truths, and are calculated to impress lessons of great moral beauty... The Monkey-Lord Jataka, the Falcon Jataka, the Bar of Gold Jataka and the King's Lesson Jataka are just some of the delightful stories in this collection. Some of these stories are famous and frequently told; others are equally charming but not so widely heard. "These tales, are, as everyone must admit, nobly conceived, lofty in meaning, and many a helpful sermon might be preached from them as texts." Such stories will teach us all of the mysterious ways that right and wrong appear to all in everyday life. They give us a clear code for moral conduct. This volume of the Jataka Tales from the pen of Caroline A. F. Rhys Davids is a pure delight.
