The
KISS Workbooks Anthology
This link leads to KISS exercises based on short
stories and poems. Some links also connect to the story, poem, or other
short text.
My main sources for texts
for KISS exercises:
Project
Gutenberg
Gutenberg has a huge collection of free books.
You may particularly be interested in the Children’s Bookshelves.
Internet Archive
This is “a non-profit library of millions of
free books, movies, software, music, websites, and more.” It doesn’t catalog
“children’s literature,” but when I put that in the “Any field” in the
“advanced search,” I got 19,977 results, many of which you can simply download,
and also many that you can borrow. (I haven’t tried that.) It works better
if you just put in an author’s name or the name of a specific story, etc.
A search for “fables” in “title” returned 2,639 books, articles, audio,
etc.
People have also found the
following interesting.

Bartleby.com
A menu at the top of this page will take to you
to “Reference,” “Verse,” “Fiction,” and “Non-fiction.” It is a massive
source.
Fairy
Tales and Bedtime Stories
Including many stories, this site also has links
to still more sources. It was suggested by Sarah Smith.
