Herein are 10 well illustrated Russian stories for children compiled and retold by Vallery Carrick. This is a collection of ten fantastic stories about Russian peasant life for young children. Because life on the steppe and in the forests was so dependent on animals and farming, it is not surprising to find comical interactions of humans with animals, particularly bears, the symbol of Russia. The text is amply illustrated with pen and ink drawings throughout. Valerian (Vallery) Carrick (1869-1942) was a Norwegian author, translator, painter and Illustrator. He wrote “Picture Folk Tales” and followed this up with “More Russian Picture Tales”. Both were originally published in 1914 but proved so popular a rerun was ordered in 1920. The gap between the two could be ascribed to the effects of WWI on commerce. The stories and adventures in this volume are: The Cock and the Bean The Goat and the Ram The Hungry Wolf The Peasant and the Bear The Dog and the Cock King Frost The Bear's Paw The Bear and the Old Man's Daughters The Straw Ox The Fox and the Blackbird So, wrap up warm and come out onto the Russian steppe with me, and let us listen and watch, and I promise you it will be worthwhile. This volume is sure to keep you and your young ones enchanted for hours, if not because of the quantity, then the quality of the stories. They will have you and your loved ones coming back for more, time and again. ============ KEYWORDS/TAGS: Children’s stories, Childrens, Folklore, Fairy, Folk, Tales, bedtime story, legends, storyteller, fables, moral tales, myths, happiness, laughter, , angry, animals, awl, axe, bark, bean, Bear, beast, beautiful, beaver, birch, blackbird, bloom, boil, bones, bottom, bow wow, boy, bread, Bruin, charcoal, chicken, clever, cock-a-doodle-do, cottage, daughter, delight, den, dogs, ducks, face, farmyard, flax, fox, frost, freeze, funny, gateway, gold, goose, guest, hay cutter, hay make, hens, hoar-frost, hobble, honey, Horse, icicle, King, queen, lime tree, lumber, master, Mistress, O-ho, old, oven, peasant, Peter, pleasure, poppy, queer, Ram, ride, sack, sing, scarf, scold, shiver, shoes, silver, sledge, sleigh, smith, spring, step daughter, step mother, tail, tale, village, wander, wolf, wool, Wow-wow, yard, young

Discover a collection of fairy tales unlike the ones you've read before . . . Once upon a time, in the middle of winter, a King sat at a window and sewed. As he sewed and gazed out onto the landscape, he pricked his finger with the needle, and three drops of blood fell onto the snow outside. People have been telling fairy tales to their children for hundreds of years. And for almost as long, people have been rewriting those fairy tales - to help their children imagine a world where they are the heroes. Karrie and Jon were reading their child these stories when they hit upon a dilemma, something previous versions of these stories were missing, and so they decided to make one vital change.. They haven't rewritten the stories in this book. They haven't reimagined endings, or reinvented characters. What they have done is switch all the genders. It might not sound like that much of a change, but you'll be dazzled by the world this swap creates - and amazed by the new characters you're about to discover.
Relates the adventures of a group of Mites led by Dunno when their hot air balloon carries them far beyond their home in Flower Town.
'She turned into a frog, into a lizard, into all kinds of other reptiles and then into a spindle' In these tales, young women go on long and difficult quests, wicked stepmothers turn children into geese and tsars ask dangerous riddles, with help or hindrance from magical dolls, cannibal witches, talking skulls, stolen wives, and brothers disguised as wise birds. Half the tales here are true oral tales, collected by folklorists during the last two centuries, while the others are reworkings of oral tales by four great Russian writers: Alexander Pushkin, Nadezhda Teffi, Pavel Bazhov and Andrey Platonov. In his introduction to these new translations, Robert Chandler writes about the primitive magic inherent in these tales and the taboos around them, while in the afterword, Sibelan Forrester discusses the witch Baba Yaga. This edition also includes an appendix, bibliography and notes. Translated by Robert Chandler and Elizabeth Chandler With Sibelan Forrester, Anna Gunin and Olga Meerson
