Silly Solutions

by Mary Hays & Helen Raczuk

Folktales have traditionally been told as a way to entertain and as a method to teach children the way of the adult world. This collection of stories explores themes of sharing, generosity, and common sense and builds on the idea that sometimes the best way to get a point across is through absolutely ridiculous humour! 

 These tales, gathered from India, Germany, Pakistan and Finland show us that humour is universal, and ridiculous stories are often the most memorable.

 In addition to strengthening reading and performance skills, these stories may also serve as a starting point for discussions about values, social behaviours, character training and life skills.
