Auf jedem Baum wächst eine Sage

Buy this book from amazon.de

"Wenn einer eine Reise tut, dann kann er was erzählen." - Dieses Sprichwort wird zwar auch mit dem vorliegenden Buch bestätigt, jedoch im wortwörtlichen Sinne: Gerahmt von kurzen Reiseimpressionen werden Geschichten, Erzählungen, Sagen und Berichte vorgestellt, die aus den verschiedensten Winkeln der Welt zusammengetragen wurden. Man kann also erfahren, was sich in Skandinavien, auf dem Balkan, in Sibirien, China, Kanada, auf Zypern und an vielen anderen Orten der Erde erzählt wird.

Helga und Heinz Kaden brachten als Souvenir von ihren weiten Reisen immer eine kleine Geschichte mit nach Hause ins erzgebirgische Seiffen. So entstand über die Jahre hin eine beträchtliche Sammlung von manchmal recht lustigen, manchmal auch traurigen, stets aber interessanten Lesestücken. Mit ihrem Buch Auf jedem Baum wächst eine Sage. Erzählte Weltgeschichten stellen Helga und Heinz Kaden eine Auswahl ihrer "Souvenire" vor.
