The Junior Classics Volume 1: Fairy and Wonder Tales (version 2)
William Patten
Read by LibriVox Volunteers
Oh boy! Fairy Tales and Wonder Tales. This is exactly what you are thinking about but with a twist. Of course the well known tales from France, Spain and Poland are here, but also a wonderful flavoring of fairy tales from India, the American Indians, Norseland, Russia, Serbia and Ireland. So, if you would like to hear a tale that the American Indians told their children, or one that Polish mothers told their kids, this is your chance to expand you knowledge of that wide world of fairies, and strange and odd beings. - Summary by Phil Chenevert (14 hr 47 min)
