Morpurgo, Michael

The popular British author chooses seventeen retold stories from Aesop, Andersen, international folklore, and other sources. There is a totally original story about Noah's Ark by Geraldine McCaughrean; Morpurgo himself adapts Prokofiev's children's symphony "Peter and the Wolf." Each selection includes a short introduction. Illustrations in various styles (and by many different artists) make the enjoyable anthology handsome as well.
