This picture book teaches valuable lessons with a sense of childlike wonder. American author C. A. Scully retells classic fables using wisdom from Eastern philosophy. One story follows Alan, a low-ranking ant, as he helps children understand that gains and losses in life should be viewed from a long-term perspective, similar to the fable about an old man losing his horse.
