The listing, The Book of Virtues has ended.
Up for auction is 831-page hardbound book (very heavy) with dust jacket called:
The Book of Virtues A Treasury of Great Moral Stories
Edited, with commentary by William J. Bennett
Responsibility. Courage. Compassion. Loyal. Honesty. Friendship. Persistence. Hard work. Self-Discipline. 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 place to find them is in great works of literature and exemplary stories from history.
In The Book of Virtues, William J. Bennett has collected hundreds of stories in an instructive and inspiring anthology that will help children understand and develop character-- and help adults teach them..... These stories are a rich mine of moral literacy, a reliable moral reference point that will help anchor children and ourselves in our culture, our history, and our traditions--the source of the ideals by which we wish to live our lives. Complete with instructive introductions and notes, The Book of Virtues is a book which the whole family can read and enjoy--and learn from--together.
This book is in good condition. The dust jacket is a little beat up with curving on one corner and slight scuffing and small tears on a few corners. Book itself is in great condition with no bending of corners or markings but does look like it collected dust for quite awhile before I cleaned it.
