In this 412th issue of the Baba Indaba?s Children's Stories series, Baba Indaba narrates the Polish Fairy Tale "RšBEZAHL?.
Rbezahl is a folklore mountain spirit of the Karkonosze, or Giant, ÿMountains which run along the border between the historical lands of Bohemia (Czech Republic) and Silesia (Poland).

In legend, Rbezahl appears as a giant, a gnome, or mountain spirit. With good people he is friendly, teaching them medicine and giving them presents. However, if someone derides him he exacts a severe revenge. He sometimes plays the role of a trickster in folk tales.

Our story starts with Rbezahl tending a flock of sheet in a sweet mountain glade. He spies and falls in love with a fair maiden, a daughter of the King. He plans to win her love by enchanting a nearby grotto by turning rocks into white marble, daisies into climbing roses, rocks into crystals and berries into strange and exotic fruits. Even sparrows are transformed into exotic colourful creatures.

On arriving the princess and her companions are amazed by their discovery. After tasting the fruits and exploring this magical mini-wonderland, the princess cries out that nothing would content her but to bathe in the marble pool. This she did???

But what happened next you ask?? Well, to find the answer to this question, and any others you may have, you will have to download and read this story to find out for yourself.

Each issue also has a "WHERE IN THE WORLD - LOOK IT UP" section, where young readers are challenged to look up a place on a map somewhere in the world. The place, town or city is relevant to the story. HINT - all places can be found using Google maps.

In looking up these place names, using Google Maps, it is our hope that young people will click on the images and do further investigations about the people who live in these towns in order to gain an understanding of the many and varied cultures from around the world. Through such an exercise, it is also our hope that young people will not only increase their knowledge of world geography but also increase their appreciation and tolerance of other peoples and cultures.
