Blumenmärchen aus aller Welt

The seventy fairy tales, legends, and parables tell how flowers came to the earth and how people transform into flowers. They speak of the longing for summer blooms and helpful flower spirits; of fate fairies in the flower meadow and the flower queen who sleeps underground in winter. There are also stories of magical flowers that grow in royal gardens and rescue princesses. The brief, sensual time of blooming is just as prominent in these tales as the inner and outer growth of the heroines and heroes on their life journeys. The stories are complemented by introductory texts and a flower ABC. A treasure book full of flower tales for fairy tale lovers and flower enthusiasts, and for all who wish to become one.
