excellent to read to your kids

we love this book it has great stories from all over the world. great to read to your kids (mine are 6 and 8) - they are glued one to each side when i'm reading them a story from this book. Also excellent for new readers once they have gained confidence with reading and finished the general picture book reading stage.

very educational

This is a collection of folktales from around the world. There are stories from places such as Japan, China, Africa, India and more. This is a great way to learn about traditions from other cultures. I likes that the stories were short enough to read a few at a time as bedtime tales I would recommend this to others. It is a great way to learn about the world. As we read the stories in our homeschool we located the places the stories came from on the map.
