ENGLISH DESCRIPTION
Heroines save the day in this empowering collection of folktales from
around the world, perfect for fans of Good Night Stories for Rebel
Girls.
Curses to be broken. Riddles to be solved. Kings' favor to be won. These
are the standard stories we've heard in folktales and fables for as long
as we can remember--challenges faced and overcome by princes and knights
in shining armor. In Folktales for Fearless Girls, though, we see a
different set of heroes charge across the page. In fact, we see
heroines.
Wily women and clever girls, valiant queens and brave villagers--these
are the people to save the day in this collection of folktales from
around the world and across the ages. Long before J.K. Rowling brought
us Hermione Granger, well before Katniss Everdeen entered the arena,
these fierce protagonists were the role models for strong girls through
the ages. Here we read the story of Jimena, who dresses like a man to go
fight in a war; of Min, whose cleverness leads her family to riches; and
of Nabiha, who outsmarts thieves and wins the respect of the king. With
stories from China, Russia, Persia, India, Armenia, the UK, Spain,
France, Southern Africa, Egypt, and Germany, this is a collection of
tales that showcases the original literary feminists.
With beautiful full-color art throughout to accompany these empowering
tales, this an essential book for all girls!
