Краљевић Марко

Prince Marko

Truth-teller, wine-drinker, friend of a mountain fairy and rider of the piebald horse Šarac — Prince Marko is the hero every Serbian child knows. Eighteen chapters retell the great epic songs in fresh, graded prose: the truth spoken at Kosovo, the fairy's arrows, the duel with Musa the Highwayman, and Marko's last ride to the two fir trees. Serbian that climbs from A2 to B1, one legend at a time.
