An enchanting, powerful fable as timely today as a century ago, A Tale without a Name is the first-ever translation of this classic fairy tale for all ages, inspiring to children and adults alike, written by Penelope S. Delta, a Greek aristocrat straight out of a novel by E.M. Forster. This is a tale with no name, set in a Kingdom of no specific time or place. There, an old King and an ageing Queen cling to the ghost of a memory long lost. There are Princesses: two royally spoilt pernickety, capricious, empty-headed and imperiously stubborn - and a third - the youngest - sweet, regal and noble. And there a Prince - a proper Prince, brimming with the stuff great tales are made of - has to make a choice to perish or be reborn, to abandon his country and let it follow the path to perdition, or give it new life. His task is to learn a new way of life and, what is more, to learn how to teach it. To build again that which has been broken, to correct the failing and the wrong. With a little bit of help and words of wisdom along the way, the Prince will rebuild and inspire the subjects of his Kingdom. Penelope S. Delta's A Tale without a Name is translated from the Greek and charmingly illustrated with all-new black and white drawings throughout by Mika Provata-Carlone, and published by Pushkin Press. The Greek writer Penelope S. Delta was born in Alexandria, Egypt, in 1874. She wrote children's books, memoirs, historical studies, articles on children's education and welfare. She was a true philanthropist, a woman of remarkable spirit and intelligence. Her life was surrounded by political turmoil: her father, a cotton merchant who became the Mayor of Athens, was almost executed during the 1916 clashes between royalists and Venizelists; the diplomat and writer Ion Dragoumis, with whom Delta fell passionately in love, was assassinated. She ultimately took her own life in April 1941, on the day the Nazis entered Athens.

The Princess With No Name is the first book in a series of stories bringing to life the ancient "patakis" or sacred stories of the Yoruba tribes of Africa as fairy tales. This story begins in the Kingdom of Oyo where King Obata, the wisest man in Africa, rules with his lovely Queen, Marta Mae. They have a baby they name Oshun. Although the King loves the Queen, he loves his precious little girl even more. Spurred by jealousy and envy, the Queen refuses to reveal Oshun's true name to the world insisting they call her "The Princess". When the charming Prince O discovers and reveals Oshun's name and seeks her hand in marriage, the Queen devises a plot to kidnap Oshun who is left in the woods to fend for herself. Her adventure leads her to several good witches who train her in the magical arts of healing and transformation. Oshun uses her new found powers to break the curse and save her village. Through her experiences Oshun learns the true meaning of love, sacrifice and forgiveness. The tale blends African folk lore and adventure with family values, hope and redemption. A captivating bedtime story.

Solve riddles with Squirrel as he travels to the walled city of bees, the fireless tea plantation of mice, and treacherous desert full of tricksters in this beautifully written and creative debut adventure. Squirrel never expected to be anything other than a slave: the last animal slave in Bimmau. That is, until he is invited to a high profile wedding and takes a sip of the forbidden ceremonial wine, unlocking a mysterious riddle. The riddle reveals that there is a key which has the power to grant Squirrel his freedom (and a name!), but also could enslave anyone in Bimmau. Disastrous if it falls into the wrong hands! Squirrel and his friends find themselves in a race to find Brittle’s Key before the army of crows gets to him…and before the mysterious Colonel finds the key first.
