Some of the selections are a thousand years old, including:

  • Dream of the Butterfly
  • The Frog Who Lived in a Well
  • How the Fox Tricked the Tiger

Full of colorful illustrations, delightful characters, and retold for an international audience, this multicultural book will enchant children and parents alike.
