Tierfabeln und andere Geschichten

Since ancient times, people have expressed morals and life wisdom through fables in which animals act like humans. By displaying human traits and behaviors, animals hold up a mirror to us and encourage us to reflect on ourselves.

This read-aloud book for children aged 4 and up combines well-known fables such as The Crow and the Fox and The Lion and the Mouse with lesser-known ones, some of which come from different cultural backgrounds. Fables by Aesop are included in this book, as well as short fables that can be read quickly, providing opportunities for discussions about ethics and morality, and of course, about animals.

• Familiar and new animal fables and stories for children aged 4 and adults, retold by Rolf Toman
• Fables convey life wisdom and promote reflection on human interactions
• Originally illustrated by Seobhan Hope.
