Review
This series provides a good introduction to the wealth of stories to be found around the world, and would make a good addition to a primary school library. (Armadillo, Autumn 00 )
Desirable and collectable [...] What makes them work is their integrity and synergy as a series. [...] These stories cannot fail to stimulate your child's imagination and sense of wonder. (Children's books in Ireland, Dec 00 )
The selection of stories is interesting, and these books would be of great value in class. (Books in schools 2000, Issue 82 )
Product Description
This beautifully illustrated collection of stories from one of the world's richest story-telling traditions are ideal for young readers and for reading aloud to 7-11 year-olds.
