Fearless Girls, Wise Women & Beloved Sisters: Heroines in Folktales from Around the World by Kathleen Ragan

4.0

This is a truly wonderful collection of folk and fairy tales. The variations in theme, structure, and flavor, as well as a fairly international sourcing, have created a well rounded and collection. I sometimes very much enjoyed the editorial notes at the end of each story, and sometimes found them a bit cloying (or somewhat less compatible with my own feminism), but I think they definitely make this collection a bit more accessible to multiple audiences. There are many women in my life who will be receiving a copy of this book in the next year.
