The Brave Little Tailor

When a hardworking tailor emerges from his work, delighted about his feat of killing seven flies with one swat, the townspeople mistakenly assume he is talking about the subject on everyone's mind: giants! Before the tailor realises the mix-up, the king commissions him to go into the woods and stop the giants who have been terrorising nearby towns. Luckily, the little tailor is brave, and with some wit and ingenuity, he is able to rid his village of giants forever!

Commitment #6 : Challenge stereotypes, encourage openness and a desire to learn

Denounce the injustices done to women, tell stories of girls in so-called boy's roles and vice versa, read about princesses who are not content to wait for Prince Charming and reverse sexist clichés! Also tell the story of those immigrants who left their country of origin fleeing misery, sometimes war or prison because of their religion or their political opinion.

Without forgetting also the timeless classics, the documentaries to learn, the stories of animals, ogres and witches, the stories that make you laugh, the stories of love, friendship or the traditional tales from here and elsewhere.
