Terrific anthology of fairy tales

This is an anthology of 21 fairy tales from around the world that have been collected and retold by Ruth Manning-Sanders. It is one in a long series of such anthologies by the author. The tales are lots of fun and plenty spooky -- they could be good campfire tales. Table of contents Foreword 1. A Box on the Ear (Mallorca) 2. The Goblins at the Bath House (Estonia) 3.
