Proverbs for kids

This little book has more than 1,000 Samoan Proverbial Expressions and 266 Bible Quotes/Proverbs written in Samoan and English. The first major source for Proverbs is the Wisdom literature contained in the Bible, "Pride goes before a fall"; "Man does not live by bread alone." However, every native language has its very own Proverbs (muagagana) that do not exist elsewhere. Samoa prides itself with such gems as "'Ua vela le fala; The mat is warm". Solomon, son of David, king of Israel writes that Proverbs are for attaining Wisdom and Discipline; for understanding Words of Insight; for acquiring a Disciplined and Prudent life; doing what is Right and Just and Fair. (Proverbs 1:1-3)
