The New ValueTales^® are the new editions of the original ValueTales^® children's books loved by so many children, parents, grandparents, librarians and teachers.  There are over 10,000,000 copies of the original books in print.

Now, The New ValueTales^® bring insight and hope to today's generation with revised art, and updated text by the man who wrote the first several books in the original series, Dr. Spencer Johnson, the #1 New York Times, USA Today bestselling author.

Like the original books, The New ValueTales^®, written in fairy tale language, are based on true events in the lives of real men and women from various countries and in different historical times - illustrating how timeless values can help anyone living in any culture.

They present real-life role models, in a fun way, that encourage children to choose the timeless values they want for themselves, and to discover how they can be happier and more successful too - just like the stories' heroes and heroines from history.

Younger children, who are just beginning to form their values, enjoy having the books read to them. Older children who are choosing their own values, like to read the tales on their own, and perhaps use them in school for book reports.

Whatever the age, children enjoy the questions laced throughout the story that prompt them to think for themselves.

About The Original ValueTales^® 

The original ValueTales^® books were published mostly in the 1970s and 1980s.

Over 10,000,000 copies were purchased for children by parents, grandparents, teachers, librarians and church leaders.

As children read the first books in the series, they asked for more. So, people subscribed to the complete series, primarily through direct mail, with new titles arriving in regular intervals.

Many families have kept their copies of the original books and passed them down to the next generation of children.

Unfortunately, the original books became unavailable and copies were hard to find.

In response to so many requests, The New ValueTales^® — new editions of the original books — are becoming available in the future, using modern methods to incorporate updated text and enhanced art, while keeping timeless values to share with today’s youngsters.
