There's so much happening in each story, you'll want to go back and read them over and over again.

Judi Lifton has written a collection of short stories sure to captivate and nourish the imaginations of young readers. Friendship, family, and animals abound in circumstances whimsical and challenging with happy endings and thoughtful lessons. Locations vary for these stories, yet all share a similar viewpoint of child-like wonder of the natural, and in some cases imaginary, world as well as determination in the face of obstacles. Judi's Folktales seems meant to be read while sitting in a tree, reading by flashlight in a tent, or preparing for bedtime on a snowy winter's night. - Janice Phelps Williams, author of Emmeline Grant and the Monstrous Beesh
