This classic early reading book for Steiner-Waldorf schools is now
available again in a newly edited edition.
The stories and poems range in style and content from the fairy-tale
elements of Class 1 (age 6-7) to the legends and animal fables
introduced in Class 2 (age 7-8).
Rhythmical repetition of words, sounds and phrases is used throughout
the book but especially widely in the tales for younger children.
It includes The Prince Who Kept Pigs, The Tree of Three Cries, The
Giant and the Child, The Fork-Tail and the Rams, and The Monkey and
the Pea.
