Fairy Tales and "Shushin"
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I grew up with this book and my children in turn have enjoyed it. These very traditional and/or popular Japanese children's tales all bring the flavor of Japan to readers through the the illustrations and the style of the stories, which mostly are "shushin" (include morals). This is one of several books of Japanese children's stories by Tuttle Publishing which would be valuable in classrooms as examples of a different style of storytelling ... and yet some sound so familiar... and as a look into a different culture.
