In the South Bohemian landscape full of mysterious places shrouded in legends from ancient times, supernatural beings have always thrived. But civilization has also penetrated South Bohemia, although with a little less noise than in other parts of the country. So where else should fairy-tale creatures hide than in South Bohemia? Children today know better various characters and characters from foreign series. Scary stories are replaced by television, several stories per evening, and when we go to bed, we don’t even know what really happened and what was a fictional story. Only there is less poetry in it than in those old horror myths. Somehow it has disappeared from our lives. And also the awareness that good should win in the end…

The sympathetic project Fairytale Kingdom combines love for nature, traveling through the region and fairy tales. Mapcentrum, together with the Studio Gabreta publishing house, also publishes books. There is also the Czech Fairytale Union with the fairytale king Zdeněk Troška, and it has its own Czech Fairytale Academy, which is led by director Marcel Goetz.

The carp Jakub of the iluterator Kerles is the main symbol of the South Bohemian Fairytale Kingdom, of which Zdeněk Troška is the king. Together with the actor Vydra and other South Bohemian actors, he has even made 12 episodes of radio bedtime stories about him.
Fairy tales from South Bohemia and Šumava or The Story of the Carp Jakub.
The book by authors Bára Stluková and Jaroslav Kerles is another project of the Fairytale Kingdom.  Nothing spoils the fact that the whole thing is associated with health insurance and recommended wandering around the region, if the Ten Commandments of Behavior in the Forest are also part of it.
The published books represent collected fairy tales from the region, but they would suit a higher professional level of both text and illustrations
