From the land of cherry blossoms and pagodas comes a rich heritage of folk tales and legends.
Fairy Tales from Japan is a magical collection of stories unlike any you have read before.
The stories are full of surprises, entertainment and suspense. As you turn the pages you will see how the many exotic pictures, all in color, lend their own special brand of enchantment to the stories.
A collection of 26 Japanese folktales, all well told. They include the witches, ghosts, and magical animals common to Japanese folklore, and the themes of rewarded goodness common to folklore everywhere. The book ends most appropriately with a story that has no ending. The illustrations are good but not reason in themselves to get the book.
