(2) 4-6 Illustrated by Michael Larson. Mystical strains and magical powers imbue some tales in this collection; others feature those foolish, kindly, greedy, or clever folk familiar from tales around the world. Each of the stories begins with introductory comments setting the stage, sometimes indicating the country of origin. The easy flow of the narrative, along with strains of humor and irony and the matter-of-fact acceptance of magic, will catch the ear of storytellers. Bib.
