This enchanting collection of traditional English folktales reflects the depth and diversity of the folk heritage of Britain, and illustrates the ties between stories, land, and people. The editors present an enticing assortment of more than 50 tales, gathered from practicing storytellers and organized into sections based on broad themes: "The Fool in All His Glory," "Wily Wagers and Tall Tales," "Holy Days and Days of Heroes," and so forth. There's a story for every listener--from "Teeny Tiny" and "The Pixies' Beds" for young children, to spooky ghost stories and witch tales, such as "Wild Edric" and "Jenny Greenteeth" for older readers and listeners. For each tale, the authors cite a region of origin. Like other titles in the series, the book contains background information--notes on the tales, a brief history of England, a map, photographs, a glossary, and a bibliography of sources. Brief biographies of the tellers are also included. It is a wonderful resource for read-alouds and programs, an indispensable source for storytellers, and a great research tool for students.
