Adventures of Shelly the Tortoise and Speedy the Hedgehog - E-book - ePub

The collection Fables from Macedonia' and Bulgaria contains twenty-five of the most beautiful Macedonian folktales and fables, selected and translated into English. This book will take you on a journey into the wonderful world of Macedonian and Bulgarian folklore. The folk tales are translated into easy and accessible English and they are suitable for reading both by children and their parents. The book is addressed mainly towards the growing generation of children of Macedonian emigrants or children from mixed marriages who live abroad and for whom Macedonian and Bulgarian is a second language.
With this collection, I would like to help the growing generation of children of Macedonian emigrants or children from mixed marriages who live abroad. With this collection, we would like to help them and their parents keep the cultural bond with Macedonia alive and enhance their perceptions of the folklore heritage of this beautiful country. Apart from them, we hope this book will find its readers also among all those who feel connected or are interested in Macedonia or those who simply love good stories on eternal topics.
