Baummärchen aus aller Welt

The fifty tales in this collection tell of the tree as a mediator between heaven and earth. They explain why trees no longer grow into the sky and what magic word can be used to pluck fruits from wonder trees. There are stories of princesses who wait in trees for their salvation, of a tree that grants wishes, and of forest fairies who intervene in the fate of humans. All these tales are based on the development of humanity, whose growth and maturation can be wonderfully read through the symbol of the tree. A treasure book for fairy tale lovers and tree enthusiasts, inviting readers to rediscover the wisdom of trees and ancient tales.
