Book Description
Herein are 26 folk and fairy tales from the Central European nation of Serbia. IT is only within the last few years that folklore and fairy tales have been dramatised and turned into film for television and the silver screen. Here the popular legends, tales, drolls, and extravagances, which have been handed down from generation to generation among the labourers, peasants and youth of a nation, are being given a new breath of life, and a lot of them originate from Central Europe. Some of the tales in this volume are: The Wonderful Kiosk, The Snake’s Gift, The Golden Apple-Tree, And The Nine Peahens, Papalluga, Good Deeds Are Never Lost, Bird Girl, Sir Peppercorn, Bash-Chalek, The Trade That No One Knows, The Legend Of St. George - plus many more. Settled during the 6th and 7th C following the Slavic migrations, the Kingdom of Serbia was formerly recognised by Rome and the Byzantine Empire in 1217AD. Its capital, Belgrade, ranks among the oldest and largest cities in southeastern Europe. Serbia was annexed by the Ottoman Empire and later the Habsburg Empire. Following WWI Serbia helped co-found Yugoslavia with other South Slavic peoples, which existed in various political formations until the Yugoslav Wars of the 1990s. Under the yolk of communism from the late 1940’s to 1989, many traditional and religious beliefs were suppressed in favour of the communist mantra – but here 26 have been uncovered for you and your children to enjoy. Over the centuries, it is clear that Serbian folklore has had a number of influences which are now indelibly woven into the fabric of the nation and there is no better place to taste the flavours of this rich mix than in the folklore of Serbia. 10% of the net from the sale of this book will be donated to Charities. ====================== KEYWORDS: fairy tales, folklore, myths, legends, children’s stories, children’s stories, bygone era, fairydom, fairy land, classic stories, children’s bedtime stories, fables, cultural, setting, Serbia, Servia, the bear’s son, wonderful kiosk, snake’s gift, language of animals, golden, apple-tree, nine peahens, papalluga, golden slipper, golden fleece, ram, ask little, get much, justice, injustice, satan, juggle, God’s might, wise girl, good deeds, never lost, lying, wager, wicked stepmother, bird girl, sir peppercorn, bash-chalek, true steel, shepherd, king’s daughter, princess, good turn, deserve, another, biter bit, trade, no one knows, three suitors, golden-haired, blonde, twins, dream, king’s son, prince, queen, palace, royal, three brothers, animals, friends, enemies, legend of St. George, dragon

Book Description
The literal translation of “Patrañas” is humbug or nonsense. When used in the context of folklore and legends it can be taken to mean tall stories In seeking inspiration to create a book, in essence a story, it is seldom found in one item or a single occurrence, but more often when a number of these coalesce into a climax of sorts, resulting in a “Eureka moment”. And so it was with the creation of this volume of 50 illustrated Spanish Traditions. It all happened thus……In the course of one of her rambles through Spain in the late 1800’s, it happened one day that the compiler, Miss Rachel Busk, was tempted by an old longing to visit one of the most out-of-the-way and primitive villages in the region. She made her way with a young companion to a place called Guadaxox (pronounced Guadaquoth.) They were so enjoying the brightness of the day that they failed to notice how the time passed, nor how the wind from the mountains had covered the fair sky with angry clouds. It was only when the first great drops of the storm patted them on their shoulders that they realised the extent of their situation. They sought shelter for the night in the only venta, or inn, in the area. To state the place wanted for every comfort was an understatement. Expected to sleep in a communal area, much like the caravanserais on the Silk Road, their number was soon added to by a couple of rough carters. The lady of the house took pity and beckoned her to her room. Her daughter had gone with friends to another village for a few days, so her bed was free. However, Ms Busk and the old lady sat up talking the night away. In the main they talked about the customs and legends of the people, a matter in which the old lady was well versed, and which had always had a special charm for Ms Busk. The old lady was delighted to have someone who would listen to her “long yarn;” and Ms Busk was delighted to have found a source at which to satisfy some of my curiosity about Spanish Traditions. And so this volume of no less than 50 illustrated Spanish Traditions and stories was born…… Because the stories in this volume have not yet become mainstream, they are sure to pique your interest. Because the stories are so fresh, this volume is sure to keep you and your young ones enchanted for hours, if not because of the quantity of the stories, then for their quality. They will have you coming back for more time and again. ============ KEYWORDS/TAGS: fairy tales, folklore, myths, legends, children’s stories, childrens stories, bygone era, fairydom, fairy kingdom, ethereal, fairy land, classic stories, bedtime stories, happy place, happiness, laughter, Carlo Magno, Giant, El Conde Sol , Simple Johnny, Spell-Bound Princesses, prince, king, queen, Turian And Floreta, Blood-Stain, Alcázar Of Seville, Action, Adventures, Doña Josefa Ramirez Y Marmolejo, Steeple Of Covena, Fair Maid, Zaragoza, Juanita The Bald, Daughter, Love, Starving John, Doctor, Ramon, Discontented, Ballad Maker, Boot Maker, El Clavel, carnation, Ill-Tempered, Hermit, Fig Tree, Too Clever By Half, Wind, Ana, Sunbeam, Pedro Jimenez, Grape, St. Martin In Spain, Marvellous Stories, St. Michael’s Feather, Eyes To The Blind, Floating Chest, Whale Of The Manzanáres, Sun Of Wittenburg, Merino, King Vamba, Dona Terea, Teresa, Irish Princess, El Conde Fernan Gonzalez, First, Tunny Fishing, One Can Dine, Two Can Dine, Caballeresco, Hormesinda, Filial Love, Raguel, Jewess Of Toledo, Don Jaime De Aragon, Don Alonso De Aguilar, Black Charger, Hernando, Infante Don Henrique, Lions, Blanca, Haughty, Moresque, Moorish, Remnants, Issy-Ben-Aran, Móstafa Alvilá, Emir, Search, Eye, Yussuf, Sultana Perfumer-In-Chief, El Moro Santon, De Ultramar, Hernan Cortes, Sanctuary, Araucania, Indomitable, Tegualda, Fiton, Cave

Book Description
The THIRD BOOK OF DRAGONS is the third installment following in the footsteps of Edith Nesbit’s “The Book of Dragon’s” and John Halsted’s compilation “The Second book of Dragons”. Here, John Halsted, author and folklorist, has compiled “The Third Book of Dragons” from numerous sources. In this book you will find 12 illustrated tales of dragons and serpents drawn from the mists of time. Some are friendly dragons which provide wisdom and direction to the heroes of our stories. Others are downright wicked, oozing malice and evil, leaving the hero of the story no option but to destroy the spiteful, fire-breathing, beast. Our heroes always sally forth wilfully, but cautiously, engaging these ancient creatures to save a damsel in distress, or their families, from sure destruction and banishment to oblivion. Herein you will find the stories of: Orestes And The Dragon The Three Princes, The Three Dragons, & The Old Woman With The Iron Nose The Dragon's Teeth The Hunting Princes The Student Who Was Forcibly Made King Vitazko The Victorious The Three Princes Batcha And The Dragon Shepherd Paul The Dragon-Giant And His Stone-Steed The Semi-Sentimental Dragon The Dragon Of Wantley These tales have been drawn from old and forgotten books often with their original illustrations. We invite you to download this book and sit back and enjoy a romp through the middle-ages and medieval times when people really did believe in Dragons which could fly and breathe fire. ============== KEWORDS/TAGS: folklore, fairy tales, myths, legends, children's stories, bedtime stories, children’s stories, tales, tails, fables, compilation, dragons tales, boys, dragons and serpents, stories as old as time, wisdom, direction, malevolent, wicked, oozing, evil, malice, hero, knight in shining armor, saving, damsel in distress, prince, princess, banish, oblivion, tyranny, dictator, 12 dragon stories, Orestes, Three Princes, Three Dragons, Old Woman, Iron Nose, Dragon's Teeth, Hunting Princes, Student, Forced, King, Queen, Princess, Vitazko The Victorious, Batcha, Shepherd Paul, Dragon-Giant, Stone-Steed, Semi-Sentimental, Dragon Of Wantley, children’s book, fire breathing

Book Description
CROATIAN TALES OF LONG AGO, is a collection of children’s stories by the acclaimed children's author Ivana Brlić-Mažuranić (sometimes spelled as "Ivana Berlić-Mažuranić".) The collection is considered her masterpiece of Croatian literature and it features a series of newly written fairy tales heavily inspired by motifs taken from ancient Slavic mythology of pre-Christian Croatia. These children’s stories are seen as one of the most typical examples of her writing style which has been compared by literary critics to Hans Christian Andersen and J. R. R. Tolkien due to the way it combines original fantasy plots with folk mythology. The collection was translated into English by F.S. Copeland and also features 11 full page colour illustrations and almost as many pen and ink drawings by the Croatian illustrator Vladimir Kirin. The stories in this volume are: How Quest Sought The Truth Fisherman Plunk And His Wife Reygoch Bridesman Sun And Bride Bridekins Stribor’s Forest Little Brother Primrose And Sister Lavender 10% of the profit from the sale of this book will be donated to charities.
