This book brings together more than 100 American Folk Fairy Tales-many of which have never appeared in print in this form before. Over 20 stories have never been released in any edition or in any language until now.
These tales have been gathered from the earliest years of the United States up to modern times, preserving voices, traditions, and storytelling styles that would otherwise be lost.

This edition also provides, at the end of the book, detailed notes indicating when and in which U.S. state each tale was first collected or recorded. Discover a remarkable collection of narratives-stories retold in a fresh, carefully prepared edition that highlights their originality, cultural value, and historical depth.
Many of the folk tales in this volume come from families and storytellers of Polish-American heritage, adding a unique cultural thread to this anthology.
