Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
The five fairy tales presented here offer an exotic twist to such traditional stories as Thumbelina and Rip Van Winkle. Ages 7-10.
Copyright 1992 Reed Business Information, Inc.

Book Description
‘Five enjoyable Vietnamese fairy tales reflect universal themes. The title story is a Cinderella tale; there are also versions of ‘Thumbelina,’ ‘The Frog Prince,’ and ‘The Goose Girl.’ The stories are often more satisfyingly complex than their Western counterparts. An excellent and unusual addition to folklore collections.’ —SLJ.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderfully entertaining for all children young and old!!, October 24, 2001
By Jody (Katy, TX USA) - See all my reviews
This is a very enjoyable storybook. The most interesting thing I discovered about it, is the traditional stories that I grew up with, being told in a Vietnamese setting. Very enjoyable, and I look forward to reading to my young girls these stories they know so well in another format!
