Synopsis
This anthology is designed to provide a solid foundation for courses in Children's Literature, Folklore, and the Literature of Fantasy. The editors offer a broad selection of tales, grouped by theme and era, as well as variants of individual tales that invite cross-cultural and comparative analysis. Each group is preceded by an introduction by the editors. Selections from influenctial works of criticism range from a segment of J.R.R. Tolkien's classic essay "On Fairy Stories" to recent work by Jack Zipes and Maria Tatar; also included is a section on the illustration of fairy tales and a bibliogrpahy.

Review
"...A range of essays provides an intriguing (but not overwhelming) scholarly context." -- Geoff Fox, University of Exeter, editor, 'Children's Literature in Education'
"This introduction to the classical canon of fairy tales and fairy tale criticism will prove especially useful as both anthology and commentary..." --Betsy Hearne, Center for Children's Books, University of Chicago; author of 'Beauty and the Beast: Visions and Revisions of an Old Tale'
