I don't often give five stars, and in fact this time I'm only giving 4.5 tbh. But I do think every child and every social studies teacher should read this for sure, and lots of other folks who like world folktales, too.
The thing is, that it was an impulse grab at the library when I saw the name of my favorite illustrator on the spine. I thought I was going to just look at the pix. But the stories are surprisingly engaging, and the notes surprisingly fascinating. And of course the art is wonderful.
Buy this for your favorite 8 year old child, or 3rd-grade teacher.
Garland did such a great job, I'll look for more by her.

Fun and interesting. I do usually like Mahy. See thousands more of my reviews on goodreads.

Did not finish. Just didn't work for me, though I am usually a big fan of Mahy. See more of my reviews on goodreads.

Brilliant. Rather complex, so for mature audiences.
