Well told tales both familiar and otherwise. From The Emperor's New Clothes and The Nightingale by Hans Christian Andersen to The Eagle and the Jackdaw from Aesop. Stories from Europe, Africa, North America, the Caribbean, Russia, the Middle East, and Asia. Nicely illustrated by Christina Balit. Worth reading and worth reading aloud.
