Classic fiction (Children's/YA)
Aesop's fables told by Oleksandr Vyzhenko
The power of Aesop's fables is not in instructive conclusions, but in «Aesopian language», allegorical images of animals: the Wolf embodies cruelty, the Fox - cunning, the Eagle - nobility, etc. It is in this form that the idea becomes clear to the child.
by Aesop, O.Vyzhenko
Description
2600 years ago, the slave Aesop created more than 400 fables. All this time, they were passed on from mouth to mouth, and in this way about 100 works reached us. The most recent retelling of Aesop's fables for this book was made by a real storyteller, the «Ukrainian nightingale» Oleksandr Vyzhenko. He retold 35 fables!
This collection can become a «vaccination» against greed, laziness, pride, ingratitude and other vices.
