Femtio Fabler för Barn
by Wilhelm Hey from 1833 (German original); this Swedish trans. c. 1850
About
Wilhelm Hey's fifty verse fables for children (1833) — here in Swedish translation by their original illustrator Otto Speckter — are among the most charming children's fable collections in the German tradition, combining simple verse with warm, precise animal observation. They were enormously popular in nineteenth-century German-speaking households and translated across Europe. As group reading with children, individual fables (2-5 minutes each) are ideal.
Translated from the original German.
