good, but could be better

This collection was reasonably amusing. The selection of characters was diverse, and there was an appropriate mixture of both bawdy and "toilet" humor. However, I kept getting the feeling that I was reading second-hand tellings of the Norwegian classics of Asbjornsen and Moe. This collection truly pales by comparison to the high degree of art evidenced in the A & M stories. By the way, why did the designers of this book choose a paper-bag-colored cover?
Great book!

This is a great book. I read it alot myself and also to mysister. Some of these stories are very funny while others are more'romantic' (sorta). You just have to read it, one of my sister's favorites is "The Princess of Catburg".
Great book!

I just want to say this is a great collection of folk tales. There is a lot of variety and some of the tales are so funny!
