Tales of Folk and Fairies

A collection of retold folk and fairy tales drawn from varied traditions, presented as short narrative episodes that pair straightforward plots with moral or whimsical elements. Tales often revolve around enchanted objects, magical transformations, tests of character, clever protagonists and hapless foils, and creatures that inspire fear or laughter. The author uses lively, plain prose accompanied by her own line illustrations, arranging each story as a stand-alone chapter that shifts between humor, wonder, and caution. The overall tone remains accessible to younger readers while preserving folkloric rhythms and themes of resourcefulness, kindness, and the eventual triumph of truth.
