The Fisher and the Goldfish but this fish is not golden in Hungary's colour scheme but is provided with a golden crown. Alexander Pushkin told the story in verse.

Thank you for sharing! I like all of these.
It has been a long time since I've read some of these folk stories. They really are very clever.
I guess folk stories are similar everywhere. We have a "Tom Thumb" too: En Polzet.
I really like the style on the Hungarian illustrations!
You have some awesome stamps here!!! I have never seen any of these. I like them all, their designs and styles. Love the orange wolf and the blue goldfish.
Rudyard Kipling's stories are amazing, as are these stamp designs. The Hungarian ones are so colorful - love the way the artist captured the wolf's fur.
I love those! I grew up with my father reading me Just So Stories. I loved, besides the animal ones, How the Alphabet Was Made, and the B. I was just alluding to the elephant and his mean auntie a few days ago!
