    Article about the site

    Absolutely each of us in early childhood listening to fairy tales. They are most often told now (in the last century) to children. Almost all fairy tales originated a very long time ago (more than a thousand years ago) - this is so long ago that now no one can even find out exactly when. For many centuries, folk tales have played the same role in human life as books, magazines, newspapers, television, radio, the Internet and other common sources of information in our time. Fairy tales are a real household encyclopedia of the past, present, and even, perhaps, the future.

    We have already been able to make sure that Russian folk tales are very diverse, each tale is distinguished by its special content, its style and the images presented in it. There are fairy tales in which we are talking about animals, there are entertaining magical stories about the amazing adventures of a hero, be it an animal (grouse, rooster, crane, hare, bear, fox, wolf, mouse, many other animals, fictional characters: Baba Yaga, Koschey Immortal, the many-headed Serpent, the Sea King, Morozko, Kolobok ... or a completely ordinary person serves as a fairy-tale prototype: Ivan the Tsarevich, Khavroshechka, Elena the Wise, soldier, tsar, children, parents, husbands and wives) - all characters, heroes and not list. There are also short tales about lazy, stupid and stubborn people that tell about everyday life and they are often called everyday fairy tales.

    We hope that reading the texts of Russian folk tales has brought you new, good knowledge and a lot of positive emotions.
