Excerpt from Index to Fairy Tales, Myths and Legends The increased use of the story hour in work with children and the ever-widening use of fables and myths in school work have shown the need of an index which would save time by indicating at a glance the source of an asked-for story. When eight out of ten versions of a myth are given in their respective books under different titles bearing little or no resemblance to the one sought for, when each new translator or compiler may give an entire set of new titles to old favorites, mechanical aid is necessary to save reason as well as time. This index includes, besides fairy tales and fables, the stories from Greek and Norse mythology which seemed most likely to be called for, also hero stories and some modern stories like the "Leak in the dyke," which are not strictly fairy tale or legend but which are constantly asked for by teachers and story tellers. Since inquiries for stories are mainly by title this is first of all a title index. When the same story appears under various titles, it is indexed under the best known or under the one that seemed most descriptive of the story, and references are made from all the other titles. The title as contained in each particular book, when differing from the one under which it is indexed, is given in parenthesis at the end of the entry. In the case of mythology and hero stories the titles have been inverted, or invented if necessary, in order to bring the entry under the name of the character. When a book contains a number of stories about the same person but bearing different titles, a general reference to the book is given; when two only, but not in direct sequence, the titles are given in parenthesis at the end of the entry. The cross references from one story to another are intended to aid story tellers by suggesting similar stories in case the one wished for is not obtainable.

Here we have a useful and very important book for every library. The increased use of the story hour in work with children and the ever widening use of fables and myths in school work have made the need of this index so real, it seems as if the only notice this book needs, is the announcement by title of its publication. Still we may give a short account of what it contains. It includes Fairy tales, Fables, Stories from Greek and Norse mythology which are most frequently called for, Hero stories, and such modern stories as "Leak in the dyke," which, though not strictly fairy tale or legend, are constantly asked for by teachers and story-tellers. The book is a title index, with cross references from variant titles to that best known, or most descriptive. Cross references from one story to another are given to aid story-tellers by suggesting similar stories in case the one wished for is not obtainable. There are also references from subjects - holidays, stars, etc., - to aid in identifying stories of which the title has been forgotten. The indexing of the stories in the various editions of Grimm, Andersen, and Æsop is worked out well, showing the variation of titles, and the edition. Titles marked with an asterisk (*) are suitable for small children. The book has at the end a list of the books analyzed - nearly five hundred in all, arranged by authors. -Bulletin of Bibliography and Dramatic Index, Vol.8 Title index to fairy tales and fables, the most popular stories from Greek and Norse mythology, and a few modern stories, which, though not strictly fairy tale or legend, are constantly in demand; with cross references from variant titles to those best known or most descriptive, and subject references. Versions suitable for small children are starred. Contains a list of the books wholly or partly analyzed, about five hundred. -A.L.A. Booklist, Vol. 2 The annotation is intended to give a clue to the identification of the story- more necessary, perhaps, with the simpler tales in the dramatic readers, since the play titles are frequently unlike those of the fairy tales and fables from which they are adapted. Additional help in finding certain stories may be found in Mary Huse Eastman's Index to fairy tales, myths and legends, which indicates variants of the same story. -Plays for Children

Have you ever wondered where our favorite fairy tales originated, or why, since many of them don't even involve fairies, are they even called fairy tales? While the history of fairy tales is particularly difficult to trace due to their being a part of an oral tradition, literary evidence indicates that they've existed for thousands of years. Every country has them! In fact, many of our favorite tales have appeared in multiple cultures, simultaneously. The detailed cross references from one story to another are intended to aid storytellers by suggesting similar stories and special topics such as holidays, stars, flowers, etc. For anyone interested in collecting, teaching or reading children's fairy tales, this book is a must!
