Beschreibung

"Yolen breaks open ... [classic fairy tales and legends] to reveal their crystalline secrets: a philosophical bridge that misses its troll, a spinner of straw as a falsely accused moneylender, the villainous wolf adjusting poorly to retirement. Each of these offerings features a new author note and original poem, illuminating tales that are old, new, and ... refined"--Provided by publisher.
