Sure to delight children ages five and up (but no promises they\'ll be asleep by the time the story\'s over).
Meet a servant with an important mission and magic shoes, or find out what happens when Ivy bumps into a talking rabbit in the forest.
The characters in each story are as varied as the biblical Proverbs they reveal.
