Magical Tales from Many Lands

Margaret Mayo
4.3/5 ( ratings)
From a wide variety of traditions around the world come fourteen folktales of magic, mystery, and mischief. To each, artist Jae Ray brings her rich, glowing colors, her elegant sense of figure and form, and her gift for detail.
A Zulu tales tells of the indomitable Unanana, who rescues her two children from an elephant's belly. From Japan comes the story of a timeless shimmering kingdom beneath the sea. In a rousing African-American story, a band of witches get their comeuppance. Fantastic transformations, diguises, magical objects, and spirits reveal a powerful world beyond the senses, a world that influences justice and happiness in human affairs.
While suggesting the diversity of the earth's people, this gorgeous collection, crafted for reading aloud or alone, also shows - through themes of kindness, courge, stadfastness, and love, - how much we all share.
