Excerpt from Fairy Tales From Far Japan Western learning taught in the schools, and help to keep up something of the poetic and romantic feeling which we have been used to regard as an element of Japanese character. To adult readers I specially commend the preliminary chapter. In a very small Compass it gives some important facts of which it is discreditable to be in ignorance, especially now that this brilliant and progressive empire has successfully asserted her claim to take equal rank with the civilized nations of Europe.

Excerpt from Japanese Fairy Tales At last she was married to a brave warrior, and went away with him to live in another house Where there were but few servants. She was sorry not to have as many servants as she had had at home, because she was obliged to do several things for herself, which other folks had always done for her. It was such trouble to her to dress herself, and take care Of her own clothes, and keep herself looking neat and pretty to please her husband. But as he was a warrior, and often had to be far away from home with the army, she could sometimes be just as lazy as she wished. Her husband's parents were very Old and good-natured, and never scolded her. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Excerpt from Fairy Tales From Far Japan In Parts I. and II. of this little book I have written about Japan and the Japanese for those who would like a little information beyond the mere traveller's talk, but have not the leisure necessary for reading books of research. I have tried to write for such an audience as might be assembled at a mission work-party. The Fairy Tales themselves will doubtless appeal to both old and young readers.

Excerpt from Japanese Folk Stories and Fairy Tales A beautiful princess lived in Inaba. She was called the Princess of Yakami, and was the loveliest princess in all the land. Her skin was like velvet, her hair was dark as night, and her eyes were as bright and soft as the stars. She was sweet as well as fair, but willful and when they said, Fair Princess, you must marry, she replied, The time has not yet come. I see nowhere in Inaba the man who may be my lord.

Green Willow and Other Japanese Fairy Tales is a collection of 38 "tales and legends" from the Land of the Rising Sun, published in 1912. Grace James diligently gathered these beautiful stories from various sources, including the Ko-ji-ki, which is the oldest Japanese chronicle of myths that has survived the test of time and human hands to this day. Warwick Goble, well-known illustrator of his time, enhances the appeal of the anthology by furnishing it with 16 artistic depictions of some of the characters in the stories. As he specialized in Asian themes, particularly Japanese and Indian ones, he is a fitting choice for the creation of this book. Children and young adults will find these stories a fine introduction to Japanese culture. Despite its translation into a Western language, various Eastern elements remain, such as the names of the characters and places, as well as the designations of certain figures. Also, certain Asian values, such as profound respect for elders and superiors, help youngsters understand why they are important and how they are supposed to be practiced. However, since the tales date back more than a hundred years ago, some customs featured may be deemed too conservative for modern readers. These old legends and tales effectively transports one to another era and place. As such, this anthology is a great tool for escaping into a fictional realm while, at the same time, learning or being reminded of timeless moral lessons that remain applicable today.

First published in 1908, this is a book of "beautiful legends and fairy tales of Japan" that were collected, translated and retold by the author, Yei Theodora Ozaki, who states: ..".in telling them I have also found that they were still unknown to the vast majority, and this has encouraged me to write them for the children of the West." In part, the project was the result of a suggestion made by her friend Andrew Lang, another collector of fairy stories, who printed his stories in the many Colored Fairy Books. This edition includes all 63 original illustrations from printed book format.

Mrs. Isabella L. Bird Bishop says: "Miss Ballard has done English readers a great service in placing within their reach these most popular specimens of Japanese fairy lore, showing the sort of pabulum on which Japanese children are reared. I have much pleasure in commending these charming tales to all who desire a glimpse of Japanese fairy lore." * * * * * In "Fairy Tales from Far Japan" we have a charming little book, with a fore word from Isabella Bird Bishop, and two introductory chapters by the translator, Susan Ballard. The chapter entitled, "For my Grown-up Readers," gives an unusually helpful and interesting sketch of the religious condition and history of the Japanese, which is worth the price of the book for those who do not care for the fairy tales. The second chapter is avowedly intended to give the child-readers of the book a glimpse of the daily life of those who read these fairy tales in their own land. It is a delightfully chatty talk about the Japanese life and customs that must help to put the fairy tales in a setting of real life. The stories themselves are the classic tales and myths told to all Japanese children, and believed as true by the greater part of the common people. -Helping Hand, Vol. 27
