Sergey Nikolov present's two short stories with a marvelous Eastern European subtlety,  especially the 2nd story, "Mommy", with its Eastern Christian Orthodox motifs.  As a fine example of regional children's literature,  I can recommend CHILDREN'S STORIES WITH A MORAL to those who enjoy dipping into cultural pools.As for children, Nikolov's two stories may not quite hit the mark as casual bedtime reading for those unprepared for the cultural flavor.  However,  for homeschooling courses which include international literary appreciation (there is a burgeoning,  rich field of such children's books, of which many I have read), I believe CHILDREN'S STORIES WITH A MORAL will do very well as a representative.Other Children's Books one may consider for an international homeschooling course in the same age range:Our Grandparents' Last Warand Carol P. Roman's excellent world introduction series, "If You were Me and Lived in..."----I received a free copy of the aforementioned book in exchange for a candid review, having long experience with children's books and games (digital and physical) as well as classical homeschooling, and critically consider when applicable (in order of weight) titular promises vs content deliverance, stylistic qualities, general Kindle/physical formatting, and potential children/parental enjoyment.
