Summary: "Oli kerran: Satuja nuorille ja aikuisille" by Larin-Kyösti is a collection of stories written in the early 20th century. This work contains fairy tales intended for both young and adult readers, blending imaginative narratives with moral lessons. The opening story introduces themes of generosity and kindness through the journey of a poor boy who encounters various old men in need of help, emphasizing the importance of selflessness and the magic of the forest. The beginning of the book presents the tale of a young boy who, orphaned and alone, embarks on a journey carrying only three pieces of bread. As he navigates through the countryside, he assists three old men, each representing a different stage of life. In return for his kindness, the last old man rewards him with a mystical journey to a beautiful city and a magical white pigeon that guides him towards his destiny. This introductory narrative sets the tone for the collection, intertwining elements of adventure, enchantment, and the notion that acts of kindness lead to unforeseen rewards.
