(Part of the Folktales of the World Series)
No Customer Reviews
The stories we hear in childhood--usually from parents and grandparents, teachers and caregivers--teach us the values, faith, culture, and traditions of those we love most. They nourish our sense of wonder and curiosity about the world. That's what this brand-new series aims to achieve, and it is our hope that children and their families will explore these wonderful tales together. Each book, filled with evocative artwork and a cast of unforgettable characters, will bring a little magic into a child's world. The first volume, The Hungry Clothes & Other Jewish Folktales , presents a diverse selection of Ashkenazi and Sephardic fairytales, legends, parables, fables, tall tales, trickster and fool tales, and supernatural and mystical stories. They include The Pots of Honey , which teaches the importance of both justice and forgiveness; The Boy Who Prayed with the Alphabet , about an unlearned boy who finds a unique way to express his love for God; and The Wise Daughter Who Solves Riddles , one of the most beloved stories in the Jewish tradition.
