Çikolatalı Masallar - Bir Varmiş Bir Yokmuş-Ciltli

Chocolate Tales - Once Upon a Time Book Description

Dear Educators,

Chocolate Tales is a book in our much-loved Fairytale Treasure series. We hope that Chocolate Tales, compiled from Eastern and Western narratives, tales passed down from word to mouth in Anatolia, and modern texts, and written in a sweet language that children will love, will receive the attention it deserves from readers. Here is what consultant psychologist Yasemin Yalçın Aktosun, whom you know from screens, print media and her books, with her expert opinions on child and family psychology, said about Chocolate Tales:

"First of all, I would like to say this; I enjoyed reading these tales immensely. When I evaluated Chocolate Tales both in my role as a mother and as a psychologist, there were many aspects that I found successful.

Children enjoy reading books with their parents and other favorite adults. But the subtle secret here is this; The child expects the adult to also enjoy this togetherness. I think that an adult can read all the tales in this work without getting bored. Therefore, a beautiful synergy will be created between the adult and the child who reads the tale with pleasure.

Apart from this, the fact that each tale in the work gives a separate message and that the events are conveyed with a cause-effect relationship will make it easier for the child to internalize the social and moral teachings that are intended to be imparted to the child.

One of the best aspects of the book is that it includes both tales about events that can be encountered in real life - which allows the child to model the hero in the story more quickly and receive the message directly - and fable-style tales. Since this will directly appeal to the world of imagination, it will draw the child into the pleasant world of the fairy tale.

The descriptions that I have seen used extremely richly and successfully in the book will allow the child to listen to the story as if he/she is seeing it, so that the child will be able to easily perceive the details.

For all these reasons, I think that this work will make serious contributions to the social, cognitive, and emotional development and education of the child, and I wholeheartedly congratulate those who contributed to the work for the chocolate-tasting tales."
