The tales are familiar to me, in the best sense of the word, and the scholarship brings a new depth to old friends.

I read this book for a storytelling class so I could find a story to tell. This book was perfect for finding not one, or two, but at least fifteen stories I want to tell. Having to pick one will be a struggle.

However, these stories are funny, heartwarming, wisdom-sharing, and all around highly recommended. I know I’ll be sharing and telling stories from this book for years to come.
