Tales from many lands grouped by similarity to popular tales well known to westerners such as Hansel and Gretel and the three pigs. Short, easy to tell tales for young children that are easy to learn and fun to hear and tell. A great resource for storytelling and programming, especially if you want to introduce something from another culture. I often tell "The Cake Tree".

Amazon.com Product Description (ISBN 0618133283, Hardcover)A companion volume to the critically acclaimed Nursery Tales Around the World, this collection is the perfect step up from nursery stories. Fifteen wonderful read-aloud tales from many different cultures are grouped together by familiar tale types: stories like "The Bremen Town Musicians," "The Frog Prince," "Hansel and Gretel," "Rumplestiltskin," and "The Three Pigs." Folklorist Judy Sierra's inspired retellings are once again paired with Stefano Vitale's richly detailed illustrations. The stunning art evokes the visual traditions of the tales' varied countries of origin, which include Japan, Scotland, Argentina, and Sri Lanka. This is a must for folklore collectors and a perfect addition to any child's bookshelf.
