This selection of folktales is organized by theme (fairies, adventure, etc), and come from all over Great Britain, Ireland, and from some of the smaller islands as well. Crossley-Holland has published them before, but not this combination. He has curated them from a variety of tales collected in the 19th and early 20th centuries, and has updated the texts to modern standard English. I found these fun to read, and only recognized two. #folktales
