Our tool is "fairy tale" and "hero" because children like texts which make them laugh and fairy tales entertain them as well as the characters in these tales teach how to become a better person silently when reading. Fairy tales develop a child’s imagination. “When I examine myself and my methods of thought, I come to the conclusion that the gift of fantasy has meant more to me than any talent for abstract, positive thinking.” says Albert Einstein
