OpenAlex Türkçe

This study analyzes fairy tales, which have an important role within child literature, in terms of values education. The social values reflected in tales are examined in this study. Books, starting from the first reading books, are significant not only for the development process of the child, but also for the acquisition of social values. Social values are the factors maturing individuals within the socialization process with its local and universal dimensions. By means of these values, individuals, who approach and address social problems through logic, propose solutions to social problems based on common sense and avoid isolation and marginalization as a result of urban life, can be integrated into society. For this reason, tales should have fiction that includes values education. When reading or listening to tales, without even noticing, one can learn about the culture, language, religion, tradition and customs with which the story is associated. Based on this consideration, the examples used in this study were sourced not from foreign children’s literature, but instead from a Turkish source, namely Tahir Hafizoglu’s book entitled “Billur Kosk (Crystal Manor)”, which is read and taught in elementary schools. The purpose of this study is to analyze whether the evaluated tales contributed various values to education. Ozet
