I’ll Tell You a Story … Philosophy for Children is a collection of over 800 stories for children by the eminent Ukrainian educator and children’s writer Vasyl Sukhomlynsky. The stories are accompanied by Sukhomlynsky’s reflections on how to teach children values in families and in schools. As we read Sukhomlynsky’s reflections and stories, we are prompted to examine our own values, and we gain fresh insights into the principles that govern our lives. Among the hundreds of little stories, there are many gems that will move us and that we will want to share with the children in our lives.

‘Children meet each other every day at school, in the corridors, in the classrooms. They look each other in the eye, share secrets, argue, enjoy each other’s company, get upset, sometimes fight, nursing injuries great and small. Sometimes in our daily work we lose sight of the subtleties of these human relationships. Dear educators, do not forget that understanding these human relationships is your first responsibility. How each of your pupils views other human beings, what they discover in them, what they impart to others, and what remains in their hearts from others—this is a hundred times more important than whether or not they have completed today’s homework.’
