This collection of 18 Romanian folk and fairy tales contains translations of tales from Romanian which, however, comprise but a small portion of the inexhaustible treasure that exists in the nation. While the originals are scattered throughout Romanian literature this volume is an excellent companion to “Roumanian Fairy Tales and Legends” ISBN: 978-8-827544-00-6 which contains a further 15 children’s tales from Romania. Given Romania’s long and diverse cultural history, it is no surprise that the country has such a rich heritage of folk tales, fairy tales, and legends. It is also fortunate that so many of these stories survived the country’s turbulent history and were passed down throughout the ages to countless Romanian children and are now retold here. The exquisite stories in this volume are: Stan Bolovan The Wonderful Bird The Twins With the Golden Star. Youth Without Age and Life Without Death The Little Purse with two Half-pennies Mogarzea and His Son Cunning Ileane The Princess and the Fisherman Little Wild-Rose The Voice of Death The Old Woman and the Old Man The Pea Emperor The Morning Star and The Evening Star The Two Step-Sisters The Poor Boy Mother's Darling Jack Tellerchen The Fairy Aurora In approximately 82 BC, the rule of the Dacian kings was replaced by the Romans, who, in turn, were forced out by the Goths, layer supplanted by the Huns a;; by the 4th C. BC. After this, a sequence of nomadic rulers, including the Gepids, the Avars, the Bulgars, the Pechenegs, and the Cumans, ruled the area. By the Middle Ages, Romanians lived in three distinct principalities: Wallachia, Moldavia, and Transylvania, which were later ruled by the Austro-Hungarian and Ottoman empires. In 1859, Moldavia and Wallachia united under Prince Alexandru Ioan Cuza, but it was not until the end of WWI, in 1918, that Bessarabia, Bukovina and Transylvania proclaimed unions with the Kingdom of Romania and the modern state of Romania was born. 10% of the publisher’s profits from the sale of this book will be donated to the Relief Fund for Romania. =============== TAGS: Romanian, Roumanian, Folklore, Fairy tales, myths, legends, children’s stories, bedtime, fables, traditions, Stan Bolovan, Wonderful Bird, Twins, Golden Star, Youth Without Age, Life Without Death, Little Purse, two Half-pennies, Mogarzea, Son, Cunning Ileane, Princess, Fisherman, Little Wild-Rose, Voice, Death, Old Woman, Old Man, Pea Emperor, Morning Star, Evening Star, Two, Step-Sisters, Poor Boy, Mother, Darling, Jack, Tellerchen, Fairy, Aurora

ISSN: 2397-9607 Issue 267 In this 267th issue of the Baba Indaba’s Children's Stories series, Baba Indaba narrates the Romanian story of “THE CAVE OF JALOMITZA.” In crossing the pass between the peaks of Vîrfal cu Dor and Furnica, on the other side of the Bucegi, you come upon the Jalomitza river. One of the springs which feed it rises hard by, in a vast stalactite cave, at the entrance of which stands a small cloister. From time immemorial it has always been said that there is no ending to this cave, and that a man who once went in there has never been seen again to this day. The cave was once inhabited by a terrible enchanter, of whom it was told that he carried off all the fairest maidens roundabout—carried them off out of the fields, from their parents’ cottages, yes, even from before the marriage-altar. They all followed him, without resistance, but no one ever saw them more. Many a bold youth had sworn to go and free them, and had even marched bravely into the cave and called the enchanter by name: “Bucur! Bucur!” but not one had ever caught a glimpse either of Bucur or of the maidens. But in the pretty village of Rucar, at the foot of the Bucegi, there dwelt a beautiful maiden, named Jalomitza, who had been rash enough to say that she engaged never to follow the enchanter, no matter in what shape he might appear before her, or with what promises he might try to entice her. But enchant her Bucur did, leading her away to the sound of his flute. But Bucur was never again seen after he led her away. What happened to Jalomitza and Bucur? Did Bucur lead pretty Jalomita to his cave? If he did then what happened? Well, you’ll just have to download and read this story and find out for yourself. And, oh, the next time you’re in Bucharest, be sure to drive North on the A3 to Ploesti then continue on national route 1 to Sinaia or Busteni. When you get there, ask for directions to the Cave of Jalomitza. BUY ANY 4 BABA INDABA CHILDREN’S STORIES FOR ONLY $1 33% of the profit from the sale of this book will be donated to charities.

ISSN: 2397-9607 Issue 276 In this 276th issue of the Baba Indaba’s Children's Stories series, Baba Indaba narrates the Romanian legend of “VIRFUL CU DOR.” A great hora, that is a great festival and dance, was held in Sinaia, Romania the like of which had never been seen before with people from all around the Bucegi region came to the hora. What a stamping and shouting there were amid the merry dancers! The maidens seemed to hover in the air, as though their dainty feet, peeping out from the narrow petticoat, never touched the ground. Their shifts were gaily and richly embroidered, and glittered with gold, like the coins that hung on their necklets. A little to one side, a handsome shepherd, Jonel, stood leaning upon his staff and watched the hora with his dark eyes. Soon they discovered what they sought, and their sparkling gaze was fixed upon a maiden, Irina, who did not seem to notice him at all. The maiden was fair—fair as the most beautiful flower; nay, lovelier far than the gentian or the Alpine rose, more delicate than the edelweiss. Irina was fair, very fair, and Jonel, the young shepherd, gazed upon her ceaselessly. At last he too drew near the circle and grasped her hand. Towards the end of the dance he tells her he has to take his herds down into the valley for winter and asks her to wait for him. She mocks him and tells him she will only wait if he does what is impossible to do. So, in order to win the love of his life, Jonel takes up the challenge, but will the challenge be too much for Jonel or will he succeed? Will Jonel’s win the hand of Irina forever more or will disaster strike leaving Irina berefit and ashamed of her last words to Jonel?

Afterall who knows who wrote the story of Cinderella, also known in other cultures as The Little Glass Slipper, or Cenerentola (Italian), Cendrillon, ou La petite Pantoufle de Verre (French), Aschenputtel (German), Tattercoats and Cap o’ Rushes (English), or Conkiajgharuna (Georgian). There is still debate as to whether the story originated in Egypt or China. So who wrote the original? The answer is simple. No-one knows, or will ever know, so to assume that anyone owns the rights to these stories is nothing but nonsense. As such, we have decided to use the Author name "Anon E.

ISSN: 2397-9607 Issue 263 In this 263rd issue of the Baba Indaba’s Children's Stories series, Baba Indaba narrates the Romanian story of “THE JIPI”. In far away, old Roumania, there is a range of mountains named the Bucegi-group. Among these the two peaks of Jipi tower aloft, close together, as though gazing defiantly at one another, and between them the Urlatoare, or “roaring stream,” dashes down a narrow channel and plummets in a cloud-like waterfall, into the valley below, and storms onward over every barrier towards the town of Prahova. It is said that long, long ago the Jipi were twin-brothers, who loved each other so well that one could not live without the other, or eat a mouthful of bread the other did not share; nay, more—that when one was asked a question, the other answered it, and that when one did himself some hurt, the other wept and would not be comforted. They were as fair as morning and evening, as slender and straight as lances, as swift as arrows, as strong as young bears. Some even exclaimed “You are double! Like two hazel-nuts in one shell,” and they weren’t wrong. The mother who had borne them looked upon them with pride and joy, and would say, as she stroked their curly heads, “Andrei and Mirea, my beautiful sons, may your fame become so great that even the stones shall discourse of it.” One day while hunting in the woods, they meet the beautiful Rolanda, whose is called Urlanda for her wild ways and equally wild dark, black locks which flow down and over her shoulders. Both boys fall in love with this bewitching beauty. But there can only be one suitor, and is all what it seems to be or is there a darker and more sinister reason for Rolanda suddenly arriving on the scene? Well, you’ll just have to download and read the story to find out, wont you!
