“The tales of the mother of the goose or the stories and fairy tales of the old days with moral teachings” – it was under such a funny name in 1697 that a collection of fairy tales Charles Perrault was first published in France. Adored by children and adults, these tales not only embodied the dream of a miracle, for example, a meeting of a poor girl with a beautiful prince, but also contained a edification, clothed in an ironic and playful form. It is noteworthy that the tales of Charles Perrault were the world’s first book, written specifically for children. “Cinderella”, “Blue Beard”, “Donfire Skin”, “Cat in Boots” and other fairy tales presented to the reader in a new translation and richly illustrated by the work of masters of world painting and book graphics of the XVIII – XX centuries will become a real decoration of any library and bring unforgettable minutes of pleasure to readers of all ages.
