Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0781807433, Hardcover)

These 28 stories of legendary beasts and familiar animals, of greedy housewives and lovely maidens, of shrewd tradesmen and bold knights, of villains and saints, from the traditional folklore of Holland will be a valuable addition to any library. Some of the stories have happy endings and others are grim. All of them have entertaining generations of young people in the Netherlands, and they will delight everyone who reads them or listens to them as they are read aloud. Though fashions change in adventure and mystery stories, legends and folk tales are timeless because they speak the language of eternal truths, the tragedy and comedy of life.
