 He is best remembered for the publication of "Šešios pasakos" ("Six Fables"), a book of six fables and odes "Žemaičių šlovė" ("The Samogitians' Glory") written by Stanevičius himself.Two fables borrowed plots from Aesop and the other four mixed the author's own ideas with Samogitian folklore.The most important fables are "Aitvarai" (a type of household spirit in Lithuanian mythology) and "Arklys ir meška" ("The Horse and the Bear" – symbols of the Aukštaitians and Samogitians respectively) as they depict the worldview, values, and culture of everyday Samogitian peasants.
