In this compact anthology of stories, Nicole Allegretti presents a treasure trove of philosophical musings on the human condition and its struggle to blossom amid the constraints of living an idealised life. Using cleverly crafted analogies and subtle metaphors, Allegretti poses the difficult moral and existential questions of a life lived according to modern values and expectations and offers gentle and thought-provoking answers.Each story is a conversation, a metaphysical discourse, using animals and nature as anthropomorphic symbols to convey a message, a lesson, a truth. These conversations explore the transformative power of kindness, of looking outward and of breaking the bonds of habitual practices. They offer a reflection of self, mirrored in the seemingly mute exchanges constantly taking place in the natural world. Each story acts as a parable, offering a unique way to view ourselves and our interactions with each other and the world we find ourselves in.

We have practiced "social distancing" since the beginning of time, whether it be because of a modern day virus or a virus that has permeated human relationships throughout history. We continue to practice social distancing through the virus of prejudice, discrimination, judgement, superiority, bullying, and fear. Our world has become a global village where, irrespective of race, religion, nationality or colour, we, as social beings, are socially distanced from each other. Modern technology has allowed us to communicate with distant strangers but makes it more difficult to communicate with the person sitting next to us. "Freckles and Dara - A Fable for all Ages!" is a modern day parable about how two innocent but gifted lambs try to eradicate social distancing and remind us that life is richer and more colourful if we see it in all its diversity. But are we willing to pay the price? The end of the book contains two sets of reflection and discussion questions. One can be used by parents to discuss issues raised in the book with their children. The other contains questions adults can use to reflect on how such issues may have affected them on their journey to adulthood.
