Peter Rosegger grew up a peasant’s son on a remote farm in the Austrian Alps, and these stories return to that childhood: his father, the day he gave God his Sunday jacket, a mountain Christmas Eve, the burning of little Maxel’s house. Simple, humorous and devout, they are framed by an appreciation and a short biographical note.
Gentle village tales from one of Austria’s best-loved storytellers, a good choice for family reading aloud. Download the free EPUB.
