As much a collection of master storytellers as it is of stories... Infused with a new energy and poetry to make the images fairly jump off the page... Culled from nearly every continent... The black-and-white illustrations are mostly decorative and restrained, and won't interfere with the pictures
these brilliant tales paint... A volume of exceptional range. --Kirkus Reviews
The stories have their origins listed in footnotes, and they are enlivened with black-and-white illustrations; the language is properly cadenced and occasionally sings.... Libraries probably can't have too many of these collections. --Booklist
The stories are diverse not only in terms of origin, but also in their style and content. They include classics such as The Tongue-cut Sparrow (Japan) and Vasilissa the Fair (Russia), as well as more contemporary selections like One Night in Paradise (Italy)... This anthology will be most
useful for libraries in need of culturally diverse folktales. --School Library Journal
Will please readers of all ages. It's a must for the classroom and library. --Yellow Brick Road
