Poveştile bunicului

Mircea Goga’s tales offer young children a world of wonder. Love and moral values shape these tales. So do bonds between young and old. These works of fiction invite parents to share tales at home. They invite grandparents to do so, too. They aim to spark children’s wish to learn. They also help them think about their future. This edition has colour art by Iulian Bogaciev. It forms part of the Niculescu Kids series.
