10 Traditional Tales From Around The World
By Bright Classroom Ideas Marketplace
When a story begins “Once upon a time”, you can be fairly sure that it is a traditional tale. These stories have been told for centuries, and have some common elements. Some of the elements you might find in a traditional tale are; a magical setting, talking animals, good and evil characters, and a happy ending.
There is much we can learn by reflecting on the stories heard in childhood. Magical characters such as the Pied Piper, the talking frog and the fairy godmother are likely to remain in the imagination for a lifetime. The adventures these stories describe often reflect challenges we face in our journeys. The tales hide a wealth of insights just below the surface. They are clearly more than mere entertainment for children.
This ebook story collection features 10 traditional tales. Each tale is followed by 10 questions. The answers are provided in the back of the book.
