Indian Fairy Tales
by Joseph Jacobs

A collection of Indian folklore, retold for younger readers 'of all ages', includes many stories from the Jataka, a Buddhist compilation of fables.

The captivating Irish stories collected in this new edition include both comic and heroic tales from ancient literature. By turns funny, fantastical and mysterious, the stories are matched in liveliness by the original illustrations; it's the perfect book to introduce children to Celtic storytelling.
