”Morals” is a series of nine books with general educational, morals and human values. Each story revolves around one moral value (courage, kindness, gratitude, honesty, friendship,caring and love) and many of the values that the texts treat in an interesting and indirect manner. The texts adress emotion and reason together, so we find in them a mixture between reality and imagination, and between knowledge and feelings. The series tries to direct the child’s behaviour for the better and provide an integrated reading. The series about morality is fairy tales that resemble warm classic fairy tales, but in a modern way, suitable for any time and place.
