ABOUT US

Pi-Press works under the slogan “We take care of your home library”: most of our publications are either encyclopaedias and reference books in various fields, or classic, anthological and contemporary works of world and domestic literature for adults and children, which should no doubt be found in every home library.
Our original publications for children have been produced in the creative workshop of Pi-Press. Along with the authors and illustrators, children’s educators are also involved in their creation, while children are our strictest critics. We would like our books to be children’s best friends while they are on the road of growing up and maturing, as well as when they become adult people and mature readers.

Pi-Press has a completed production process – from the idea, editing, design and printing, to the realization in sales. Our books are known for their exquisite high-quality print and final production.
In addition to printing all our publications, we provide printing services to other publishers.
We are also engaged in co-production: printing works in multiple languages, with selling copyrights for our publications.

FABLES

(Basne)

Ilustrations: Vladimir Mančić
Format: 23 x 29 cm,
200 pages
Hardcover, plastified padded covers
Full colour, glossy kunstdruck paper
Extra DVD video

This wonderful book of fables will take you into an interesting world in which animals speak and behave like people. You will make friends with foxes, wolves, bears, rabbits, and many other animals, good and bad, weak and strong, smart and silly, clever and clumsy. Their examples will teach you about honesty, diligence, friendship… They will help you understand adults, as well as your friends and peers, because fables are stories about animals which actually tell about people and their good and bad traits and acts.

Just as people have their virtues (goodness, honesty, modesty, diligence, persistence…) and vices (malice, jealousy, conceit, laziness…), animals in fables have human characteristics: the donkey is dumb and stubborn, the fox is sly and cunning, the wolf is voracious, the lamb is meek, the rabbit – fast, the turtle – slow, the ox has great endurance. The nature around them is also represented as a living being, with all virtues and vices. Pointing out what is good and beautiful, as well as what is bad and ugly, fables show us in an amusing way how to behave. Every fable has a moral, or a message, which will help you grow up and understand the world, people and life.
