Although fairy tales may simply seem like stories for children, they hold much more cultural significance than we give them credit for. Fairy tales reflect the beliefs of a people, their moral values and often their incredible imagination. Rwandans are no strangers to fairy tales, and 'Ysolde and Her Magical Shoes' has seen the light as the first Rwandan fairy tale.

Entitled ‘The Ocean Palace’, is a captivating mix of Rwandan and Korean folktales written for children. It is based on an old Korean folktale, a story that echoes with morals helpful to children.
