   This book features multi-cultural children's stories with the most beautiful illustrations you can imagine. The stories are all high quality, ranging from fairy tales from all cultures, to witty modern stories. The stories inside were selected carefully. Most of them offer a peek at the culture they were written in (like "Street Scene" from Brazil, and "The Umbrella Thief" from Sri Lanka), some are just downright funny ("The Braggart Lion" from Belgium), others are thought provoking ("The Hidden This book features multi-cultural children's stories with the most beautiful illustrations you can imagine. The stories are all high quality, ranging from fairy tales from all cultures, to witty modern stories. The stories inside were selected carefully. Most of them offer a peek at the culture they were written in (like "Street Scene" from Brazil, and "The Umbrella Thief" from Sri Lanka), some are just downright funny ("The Braggart Lion" from Belgium), others are thought provoking ("The Hidden House" from England, and "All the Colors in the Rainbow" from Spain). There is 15 in all from Belgium, Brazil, China, England, Germany and Russia, Ghana and Austria, Iran, Israel, New Zealand, Norway, Russia , Slovakia and Germany, Spain, Sri Lanka, and Switzerland. Since they are from all over the world, many children have not read or heard of them before! This book is no longer in print but luckily I have a copy that I absolutely adore from my childhood. A wonderful example of different children's culture and way of storytelling! This would also make for a great geography lesson!!
