A wonderful collection of tales from Europe, the middle east, and Asia. These aren't the traditional “disney” fairy tales that have become so popular. Yes, many have happy endings, but these are traditional fairy tales that contain a point. Help the needy, don't betray your family, have patience, etc. Almost all the stories contain a note of origin, which enhanced their authenticity.
