Stories have shaped civilizations, inspired revolutions, and sparked personal transformations. They still have that power today.

I was always captivated by stories when I was a child. In school we had a class called “Moral Science,” and there was one teacher, who made it unforgettable. I can still picture his white robe and the sparkle in his eyes as he brought each tale to life.

I may not remember algebra or history equations, but I carry with me the values he taught, such as waking up early, being kind, staying punctual, speaking politely, asking questions, and so much more.

Surely you’ve felt that, too. Those moments when a story grabs you and never lets go.

That sense of wonder is what drove me to hunt down the most powerful folk tales from villages across India and Japan. I wanted to compile them so that when my child arrives, I’ll have these gems ready to share.

Inside these pages you’ll find:

• Beloved village parables you’ve never heard before

• A modern take on ancient wisdom, with my own reflections woven in

• A reminder that real magic lies in simple truths

Read them. Let them stay with you. And when you’re done, pass this book on to someone you care about, so these stories can continue to work their wonders in someone else’s life.

Enjoy the journey, and have a fantastic day!
