Description
This collection features over one hundred traditional English folktales, preserved in their original form. The stories include well-known favourites such as “Jack the Giantkiller” and “Tom Tit Tot”, as well as variations like an English rendition of “Little Snow White”. It also includes darker tales like “Captain Murderer”, originally shared by Charles Dickens. Each story is accompanied by an introduction and source notes that explain its origins and cultural significance. This anthology invites readers to experience the art of storytelling as it was meant to be enjoyed.
