Telephone Tales

by Gianni Rodari

Book Overview

Night after night, a father spins a new, fantastical bedtime story for his daughter from the other end of the telephone.

Every night, at nine o'clock, wherever he is, Mr. Bianchi, an accountant who often has to travel for work, calls his daughter and tells her a bedtime story. But since it's still the 20th century world of pay phones, each story has to be told in the time that a single coin will buy.

Reminiscent of Scheherazade...
