Více o knize

The book explores the evolution of children's storytelling, highlighting a shift from traditional fairy tales filled with moral lessons and dark themes to contemporary "wonder tales" that prioritize entertainment. It emphasizes the need for stories that resonate with modern children, who prefer whimsical narratives without the presence of genies, dwarfs, or frightening elements. This transformation reflects a broader change in children's literature, aiming to captivate young audiences with imaginative tales that spark joy rather than fear.
