Fairy tales play a huge role in passing on cultural values from one generation to another; they contain morals, reflect the characteristics of national thinking, and the character of a nation. The book club 'Knigovek' presents Japanese and Bengali fairy tales that will transport readers to the magical world of the East. Magical tales and legends paint a vivid and nuanced picture of Japan and Bengal, shedding light on the character and customs of the people inhabiting these countries. Behind the amazing characters and engaging plots lies ancient wisdom, making these tales not only interesting but also instructive. In these Japanese poetic stories, every drop of dew, every grain of sand, every leaf of a tree is imbued with magic. Here, a bronze teapot turns into a badger, storm spirits enchant travelers with their songs, and a little princess hides in a bamboo stalk. But most importantly, alongside the incredible wonders in these tales, kindness, courage, and generosity always reside, helping to overcome any challenges.
