Long ago I was captivated by the charm of the Jataka Tales and realized the excellent use that might be made of them in the teaching of children. The obvious lessons are many of them suitable for little people, and beneath the obvious there are depths and depths of meaning which they may learn to fathom later on. The Oriental setting lends an additional fascination. I am glad that Miss Babbitt has undertaken to put together this collection, and commend it freely to teachers and parents.
Jataka Tales Illustrated eBook Ellen C Babbitt
The stories are great for short stories at bedtime that each have a lesson.We often read the stories and then discuss why the characters behaved as they did, and what lesson they learned.
My 4 and 7 year old both enjoy them, and learn at a different level from the stories.
Buddha's apprentice at bedtime is another great book with similar stories.
There is some violence(killing) in the Jakata tales, where as the Buddha's apprentice rewrites the tales to remove the violence. My children like to compare the "same" stories between the two books.
Both are great, but some people may prefer an non-violent version.

Jataka Tales Illustrated eBook Ellen C Babbitt Reviews
There wasn't anything 'wrong' w/ the book, but it wasn't what I was looking for.
I have "Kindness - A treasury of Buddhist Wisdom for Children and parents", I love the book and was hoping for more of the same. The Kindness book paraphrases Jataka tales, making them a bit more clear and family friendly. I found this book to likely be more 'true' to the original stories, but less useful for my purposes.
I got the version This is a young children's book, simple, short, and easy to understand. Pleasant silhouette illustrations.
Ellen's wonderful RETELLING of these ancient tales revitalizes the for current generations. The reader is simply presented the tale powerfully unadorned.Allen Simons, Palisade Colorado - allen.simons@ymail.com
Good stories to read to my daughter, certainly. Stories with good morals and good messages. And she likes to read them too.
