TALES OF TRIUMPH
SERIES OUTLINE
^^^^Featuring a range of animal characters (a pony, a donkey, a sheep and a salmon), this series of books has been written to show that life can be very hard for some individuals, and that how we deal with any hardship, often determines the outcome of our future.
^^^^Each story is about a character’s struggle to overcome great difficulties, and shows how after a great deal of suffering or effort, the featured character goes on to have a much better life than they ever thought possible. Each story has been purposely written to give hope to those who might think of themselves as being at a handicapped in some way and show that anything is possible if we put in a lot of effort to overcome a bad situation.
^^^^The stories also show that if we are good natured and are kind to others, this will often work in our favour, as others will often respect us far more and give us more chances in life. If on the other hand we are nasty and bad natured, others will look down on us and deny us important chances or will seek to punish us for our bad ways.
^^^^The storylines themselves cover issues such as LONELINESS, BULLYING, PREJUDICE and SELF-DETERMINATION
