About this ebook
Genevieve is careless.
Muriel is discontented.
Phoebe is always putting off until tomorrow what she should be doing today.
And Chester is the laziest turkey you ever heard of.
Caleb and Conrad, on the other hand, are polite and kind and thoughtful and gracious and truthful. But some good that does them!
If the morals you find in these pages aren’t exactly, well, moral…just don’t pay any attention to them!

Fables You Shouldn't Pay Any Attention To - Florence Parry Heide
Genevieve
GENEVIEVE WAS CARELESS.
Isn’t that terrible? She was very, very careless.
All the other children took off their good clothes and put on their old play clothes when they went outside to play.
But not Genevieve. She played in her very best dresses. So all of her very best dresses were dirty and stained and torn.
All the other children were very careful with their toys. They always put them away when they were through playing. Their dolls and trucks and bikes and games were just like new. They never got lost. They never got broken. They never got wet. They never wore out.
But Genevieve was very, very careless with her toys. She left her bike outside to get rusty. Her doll was in terrible shape. All of her toys were in terrible shape. The ones that weren’t broken were wet. The ones that weren’t broken or wet were lost.
Oh, Genevieve
