«Les tres taronges de la vida» is the children's story by Joan Amades adapted by Francesc Boada, published by La Galera in hardcover (24 pages, in Catalan).
Adaptation of the classic Snow White, recovering traditional fables and legends in language close to today's children. The story includes illustrations by Pep Montserrat and seeks to make little ones not just spectators: while reading or listening, they live and feel the tale.
It is number 40 of La Galera's Popular collection. First edition published on May 8, 1998.
Aimed at boys and girls aged 6 to 8 who are starting to read traditional tales in Catalan.
Joan Amades i Gelats was a Catalan ethnologist and folklorist. An autodidact, he worked at the historical archive of the city of Barcelona and at the Museum of Industry and Popular Arts of the same city. From 1956 onwards, he collaborated with UNESCO. He was also an important promoter of Esperanto and founded the Federació Esperantista Catalana. Perhaps the most important book in his large bibliography is Costumari Català, the main work for the study of Catalan popular culture.
