A recipe-free cure for children<br />
<strong>Fair</strong>y tales impart strength, because they<br />
tell stories about successfully overcoming<br />
obstacles.<br />
This book is a kind of home pharmacy,<br />
containing the right medicines for a wide<br />
range of childhood problems.<br />
With the fairy-tale pharmacy, parents<br />
possess something that can provide help<br />
at any time, without the danger of side<br />
effects, whether their child is scared or<br />
being bullied in school or has no desire to<br />
study, etc.<br />
Reading out loud can also be a means of<br />
addressing more difficult topics like abuse<br />
or death, unburdening children’s souls.<br />
Stephanie zu Guttenberg is president<br />
of the German branch of the international<br />
organisation Innocence in Danger, which<br />
combats the abuse of children and the<br />
dispersal of child pornography.<br />
