Once Upon a Time (Seven Persian Folktales)(Persian/ Farsi Edition)

This book contains Persian text with a few Black & White pictures. -- "Once Upon a Time" is a selection of seven Persian folktales. These tales have been selected for "intermediate and advanced learners of the Persian language," and ARE NOT intended for "young children"-- A simple and easy language has been used to rewrite these stories with the intent to stay as close as possible to the narrative tone of the original texts. The selection starts with shorter and simpler stories, so that the readers could eventually elevate their reading and comprehension skills. The new words in each story have been underlined and their English definitions have been provided under an index at the end of each story. It is hoped that this selection would be helpful to those who are studying the Persian language and encourages them to explore the richness of the Persian literature beyond the pages of this book.
