Very Good!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Dancing Kettle (Paperback)
THis book is perfect for young children. All of the folk tales are wonderful, including the one about how the crane came to be. All of the children at the daycare loved it, especially about the wise man and how he grew the beard. Great folk tales. A good book for kids 2-5!
