Travel from the Nile to the desert stars, where kingdoms rise, caravans move, and old beliefs still glow in the imagination. Old worlds sing again here. Eva March Tappan's The World's Story Volume III gathers the voices of Egypt, Africa, and Arabia into a richly paced childrens history anthology: a story and song collection that brings the ancient near east, north africa and arabia within reach of young readers and the adults reading alongside them. Moving through ancient egypt legends, african folktales and myths, and arabian myths and tales, the book blends history, folklore, and cultural memory in a way that reads like an illustrated folklore anthology - vivid, varied, and made for reading aloud. Ideal for homeschool world history and equally strong as a classroom literature reader, it offers a welcoming bridge between fact and tradition, showing how people have explained the world, honoured heroes, and passed wisdom from one generation to the next, including beloved arabian nights retellings. First published in the great era of literary anthologies for schools and families, this volume stands as a landmark in how world cultures were introduced through narrative rather than dates alone. Out of print for decades and now republished by Alpha Editions. Restored for today's and future generations. More than a reprint - a collector's item and a cultural treasure.
