Some of you might recognise the website KidsMoralTales. For those of you that don’t, it’s an independent site dedicated to getting kids reading and writing. It’s an excellent resource for parents, and it’s entirely FREE to access.

They take submissions from authors all over the world, which means there’s a great variety of story styles. One thing they do all have in common (as you might have guessed from the website name) is that all the stories contain some type of moral or lesson for kids. Some have an obvious message, in other stories, it’s more subtle, but they all have one.

Firefly Forest was the first story I wrote for the site. You can read it for free here…
