Abstract
Ancient literary texts not only convey valuable educational contents and concepts to children and young adults, but provide them with the opportunities to engage in fantasy and experiencing a different world (the world of stories). In the world of fiction, children and young adults, without the direct intervention of adults, get along with the hero of the work as well as the atmosphere and mood of the story and gain many bitter and sweet experiences. Communicating with some ancient literary texts seems somewhat difficult for children and young adults; therefore, creative rewriting of these texts can make communication easier. The stories of Kelileh va Demneh have many potentials to turn into creative stories and even attractive animations. Creating a new structure in rewriting Kelileh va Demneh stories is an important platform for children and young adults to communicate with the original text. The aim of the current research is to investigate and analyze the rewritten stories of Kelileh va Demneh based on Nikolajeva’s perspective and idea of narrative dimensions. Nikolajeva suggests various solutions to develop a creative and different narrative. Paying attention to the beginning, ending and opening, increasing the plot, creating conflict and suspense can make changes in the narrative of the story. The research questions are as follows: 1) how can a creative rewriting with a different and new structure be created for young adult audiences with the help of Nikolajeva's narrative dimensions? 2. In the reviewed rewritten stories, which of Nikolajeva's dimensions are used?
