Grandmothers´ Stories - Paperback Children book with Story CD (new edition) Wise women tales from many countires by Barefoot Books
Gather around the rocking chair for stories that only Grandma can tell. After reading these tales of wisdom and adventure, you'll never look at older women the same way again. All the stories are accompanied by beautiful and ethnically appropriate illustrations....A wonderful way to introduce views and images from other cultures.” — Booklist
The stories in this anthology illustrate many of the qualities of the wise woman, offering readers of all ages a new perspective on the grandmother character that is usually presented in fairy tales as either menacingly evil or dim-witted and useless. With spirited grandmothers from as far a field as Senegal and Sweden, all of these tales are rich with humor, action and suspense. A fresh and witty retelling is complemented by finely detailed and mesmerizing illustrations.
