This is the second collection of fifty stories from the Jataka Tales - Buddhist Tales for Young and Old as narrated by Todd Anderson and translated by Ven. Kurunegoda Piyatissa, Maha Thera. These are not scholarly word-for-word translations as others have attempted.
Rather, these tales have been recast in modern English so that western audiences may understand them. Children and adults can expand their knowledge and learn how to deal with the challenges of modern life by reading these stories.
