Twenty-four illustrated Ukrainian legends, myths and fables - retold in German for children ages 8-12.

This German-language complete edition (Gesamtausgabe) gathers all 24 tales into one volume, each opening with its own full-page illustration. Young readers meet the forest-guardian Mavkas, the hero Ilya Muromets and the three-headed dragon, Prince Igor, the wise Princess Olga and the sword of the Cossack hetman Bohdan Khmelnytsky; the founding of Kyiv and the Lion of Lviv; the birth of the Carpathian Mountains and Mount Hoverla; Vyriy and the Tree of Life; and how the Big Dipper took its place in the sky - plus why the sea is salty and how a grieving mother became a cuckoo. Blending fairy tales, heroic legends, origin stories and moral fables, it is a keepsake treasury of Ukrainian folklore and cultural heritage: a family read-aloud for grades 3-6, a natural pick for world-folklore and multicultural units, and a meaningful gift for Ukrainian and diaspora families in German-speaking countries passing their heritage to a new generation.
