Short stories, i.e. fairy tales, in which the animals with human character, illustrate the children model situations in society. A child has an opportunity to familiarise themselves with life situations, which they will go through, or to understand situations, which they have already experienced. The moral and the point at the end of the fables guide the child to adopt right attitude, and to suggest solutions to difficult situations. Besides typical Aesop's morals, the author added a few own humorous and simple addenda with moral as well. An interesting fact is, that the fables were created as a reaction to an initiative of the publisher from the publishing house Asociácia Corpus with an intention to promote them among the children's reader of the Roma population. The book was awarded The Best Children's Book of the Spring 2017.
