The Fairy Tales of Charles Perrault is a collection of classic stories that have shaped European children's literature. Perrault, a 17th-century French writer, collected ten classic tales in his collection Tales or Fairy Tales from Past Times with Lessons (1697): Sleeping Beauty, Little Red Riding Hood, Bluebeard, The Fairies, Cinderella, The Little Prince, Thumbelina, Puss in Boots, Donkey Skin, and Beauty and the Beast. This edition of Fairy Tales, adapted for young readers, captivates with its simple yet poetic language and moral messages.

In Sleeping Beauty, a princess sleeps for a century because of a curse, until she is awakened by a prince. Little Red Riding Hood learns the dangers of disobedience when she encounters a wolf. Bluebeard depicts curiosity and fear, with a young wife who discovers her husband's dark secret. Puss in Boots shows how cleverness and cunning bring success. The fairies emphasize kindness, while Cinderella celebrates modesty and justice. Prince Charming is about love beyond appearances, and Thumbelina is about courage despite being small.

Perrault's fairy tales combine magical elements, folklore, and moral lessons, warning against greed, disobedience, or wickedness while celebrating charity and wisdom. The Squirrel edition, with illustrations and language adapted to children, preserves the spirit of the original, making the stories timeless.

Siljan roda: Makedonska narodna pripovijetka

Siljan, the hero of this story, is sometimes a boy, sometimes a stork, so it is no wonder that we meet people who have something animal in them and animals who think, speak and act like people - wise men and fools, warriors and cowards.
