Description
Hryhorii Skovoroda's fables are philosophical miniatures, reflections on congenial work, fulfilling one's vocation, happiness, and gratitude.

Skovoroda's fables will teach young readers important lessons, including:
- Not limiting oneself to the exteriority of things but also focusing on their inner essence.
- Pursuing activities that fulfill one's vocation.
- Avoiding deception of others.

The fables were arranged and adapted for children by one of the foremost experts on Skovoroda's works, Leonid Ushkalov.
