Uncle Arthur's Bedtime Stories were staples when I was growing up. The red covers and the moral lessons still give me a slight thrill when I see a volume in a thrift store or book shop. Though I am not raising my girls with any specific faith, and thus have a hard time with the traditional Christian slant, the stories still hold charm and I find myself melting into the stories as I read them aloud to them at bedtime.
As an aside, I absolutely LOVE this blog post about the guilt inducing side of Arthur Maxwell's stories. Actually, the whole blog is a treasure. Absolutely hilarious!
