About this item
"This is a superb anthology of fairy tales and criticism that is perfect for classroom use. It provides an excellent selection of primary and secondary texts, organized to permit a wide variety of approaches to teaching the fairy tale. Tatar's introductions to each section are balanced, up-to-date, and provocative."
--Donald Haase, Wayne State University"Wonderful, comprehensive book!" Hope L. Russell, SUNY Buffalo
"I have used this textbook for four courses on children's literature with enrollments of over ninety students. It is without doubt the most well organized selection of literary fairy tales and critical commentaries currently available. Students love it."
―Lita Barrie, California State University, Los Angeles
