Cunoastem oare continentul pe care traim? Ce ne poate spune folclorul care circula in spatial European despre popoarele care locuiesc aici? Legendele si povestile volumului de fata nu numai ca ne pot face cunoscute trasaturile stravechi ale popoarelor Europei, visele si credintele lor, traditiile si mentalitatile acestora, dar ne vor arata si cat de asemanatori suntem de fapt. Pentru micii cititori, ele sunt, in plus, tot atatea prilejuri de incantare, hrana pentru minte si imaginatie si, totodata, cel mai placut mod de a exersa cititul. Astfel, fiecare basm este insotit de o scurta secventa Dupa lectura, care verifica prin cateva intrebari intelegerea celor lecturate.

The British television series adapted from the books is also titled All Creatures Great and Small.
