Uffa che barba
Summary
Pronto soccorso fiabe nasce con lo scopo di reinterpretare in modo originale gli obiettivi principali che da sempre le fiabe e le favole hanno avuto dal punto di vista pedagogico: quello di trasmettere valori, divertire, permettere di esorcizzare le paure, dare una chiave di lettura della realtà grazie al potere dell'immaginazione e della proiezione. Quando i bimbi non riescono a prendere sonno, quando sono in viaggio, mentre i genitori preparano la cena o quando devono affrontare una situazione nuova potranno ricorrere alla fiaba che, partendo da semplici momenti di vita quotidiana, li condurrà verso avventure straordinarie. Molte sono le tematiche e le avventure vissute dai protagonisti delle 12 fiabe nate da un'idea di Kulta e scritte da Gianluca Munari. Si tratta di un genere che da sempre è del tutto coerente con il registro del parlato e dell'ascolto: fiabe e favole trovano in questa modalità la migliore espressione e la più efficace delle possibilità di trasmissione. La tradizione orale, in tutte le culture, ha da sempre contemplato leggende, miti, favole e fiabe per accompagnare la condivisione di tradizioni e il passaggio di consapevolezze e valori tra generazioni. Audible, utilizzando le tecnologie e i mezzi oggi disponibili, rinnova questa tradizione. Siete pronti a seguire Yú alla ricerca del pesce d'oro? Ad andare in vacanza con Anna e la sua bambola? A sbirciare sotto il comodino di Maria, a conoscere il gatto di Marcello o ad assaggiare il pane più buono del mondo? Lo sapevate che si possono pagare le tasse sulle bugie e che esiste un prodigioso sciroppo luminoso? Forse nessuno vi ha mai detto che i felini sono grandi lettori e che un divano può diventare una discreta imbarcazione. Se avete sognato di volare sopra una lucciola o di osservare un quadro al di là della cornice queste fiabe fanno per voi. Qui potrete trovare streghe e principesse, orsi e ladruncoli, bastoni, cravatte, panini, coraggio, paure, capricci, risate, invenzioni e... molto altro! Le fiabe sono state realizzate per essere fruibili da bambini appartenenti a tre diverse fasce di età (4-6 anni, 6-8 anni, 8-10 anni), ma contengono chiavi di lettura che possono essere apprezzate anche da un pubblico composto da ragazzi e adulti. Uffa che barba! Una visita alla nonna può rivelarsi più interessante del previsto se tiri fuori dalla tasca la fantasia. Scommettiamo che non ti annoierai neppure un po'?

Russian Folk Fairy Tales
Summary
Russian Folk Fairy Tales is a wonderful collection of the most famous Russian fairy tales. The "Russian skazki" ("skazatz" means to tell) are the mass of folk-tales distributed widely throughout all the Russias.

Famous Russian fairy tales are "Vasilisa the Beautiful", "Sister Alenushka", "Brother Ivanushka", "The Tale of Ivan Tsarevich and the Gray Wolf", "Marya Morevna", "Princess Frog or Frog-tsarevna", "Finist Clear Falcon's Feather or Finist the Falcon".
