(2) 4-6 Van Laan's selections range from traditional tales (such as the Uncle Remus stories) to superstitions, rhymes, and riddles. The retellings are organized according to geographic region, and each section begins with an introduction to the history and culture of each region's storytelling tradition. Cook's caricature-like illustrations draw out the fun-loving humor with an affectionate wink-and-a-nod style. Source notes included.
