With no written language and living in the Lake Superior, American Indians shared tales passed down through the ages. Though the tile suggest the stories are fairy tales, the stories were used to pass along the collective wisdom of the tribes in which they were shared. In the 1830s, ethnologist Henry R. Schoolcraft learned the language of these people and went out to collect and to preserve the stories before the tribes disappeared. Schoolcraft is also known for his major six-volume study of Native Americans published in the 1850s. With one exception, all the tales in this book are adapted from the legends collected by Henry R. Schoolcraft, ethnologist and government agent for the Lake Superior country, and published in 1839 with the title, "Algic Researches."

Soils and national characteristics differ, but fairy tales are the same in plot and incidents the world over. So proved the leading British folklorist Joseph Jacobs (1854-1916) with this now classic volume of 29 traditional tales from India, including some of the oldest recorded tales known."The Lion and the Crane," "How the Raja's Son Won the Princess Labam," "The Broken Pot," "The Tiger, the Brahman, and the Jackal," "The Talkative Tortoise," "The Ass in the Lion's Skin," "Why the Fish Laughed," "Sun, Moon, and Wind Go Out to Dinner," "The Prince and the Fakir," and all the other stories make delightful reading or listening for youngsters who are tired of the same familiar old favorites. John D. Batten's nine full-page plates and his 37 other drawings are reproduced from the original edition.

The Algonquins are Native Canadian inhabitants of North America who speak the Algonquin language, a divergent dialect of the Ojibwe language, which is part of the Algonquian language family. Culturally and linguistically, they are closely related to the Odawa and Ojibwe, with whom they form the larger Anicinàpe (Anishinaabe) grouping. The Algonquin people call themselves Omàmiwinini (plural: Omàmiwininiwak) or the more generalised name of Anicinàpe.

Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-English Fairy Tales by Joseph Jacobs.The purpose of realizing this historical context is to approach the understanding of a historical epoch from the elements provided by the text. Hence the importance of placing the document in context. It is necessary to unravel what its author or authors have said, how it has been said, when, why and where, always relating it to its historical moment.Joseph Jacobs (August 29, 1854 - January 30, 1916) was an Australian folklorist, literary critic, historian, and writer of English literature who became a notable collector and publisher of English folklore. His work went on to popularize some of the world's best-known versions of tales in English such as Jack and the Beanstalk, The Three Bears, The Three Little Pigs, Jack the Killer and Tom Thumb. He published his collections of English tales: English Fairy Tales in 1890 and More English Tales in 1894, but he was also inspired after and in between the two books to publish tales collected from continental Europe, as well as fairy tales, which made him in one of the most popular writers of Jewish, Celtic and Indian tales for the English language

merican Indian Stories is a collection of childhood stories, allegorical fictions and essays written by Sioux writer and activist Zitkala-Sa. First published in 1921, American Indian Stories details the hardships encountered by Zitkala-Sa and other Native Americans in the missionary and manual labour schoolsThe autobiographical details contrast her early life on the Yankton Indian Reservation and her time as a student at White's Manual Labour Institute and Earlham College. The collection includes legends and stories from Sioux oral tradition, along with an essay titled America's Indian Problem, which advocates rights for Native Americans and calls for a greater understanding of Native American cultures. American Indian Stories offers a unique view into a society that is often overlooked though that society still persists to this day. The story begins with a description of the big path that leads from Zitkala-Sa's childhood wigwam to a river which, in turn, makes its way to "The Edge of Missouri". Her mother would draw water from this river for household use. Zitkala-Sa would play at her mother's side, noting that she was often sad and silent. At the age of seven, Zitkala-Sa describes herself as 'wild' and 'as free as the wind that blew her hair'. Recounting a conversation with her mother on one of their return trips from the river, Zitkala-Sa told her that when she is older like her 17-year-old cousin Warca-Ziwin, she will come and get water for her. Zitkala-Sa's mother responded, "If the paleface does not take away from us the river we drink".

This is an annotated version of the book1. contains an updated biography of the author at the end of the book for a better understanding of the text.2. This book has been checked and corrected for spelling errorsIN the sea, once upon a time, O my Best Beloved, there was a Whale, andhe ate fishes. He ate the starfish and the garfish, and the crab and thedab, and the plaice and the dace, and the skate and his mate, and themackereel and the pickereel, and the really truly twirly-whirly eel. Allthe fishes he could find in all the sea he ate with his mouth--so! Tillat last there was only one small fish left in all the sea, and he was asmall 'Stute Fish, and he swam a little behind the Whale's right ear,so as to be out of harm's way. Then the Whale stood up on his tail andsaid, 'I'm hungry.' And the small 'Stute Fish said in a small 'stutevoice, 'Noble and generous Cetacean, have you ever tasted Man?''No,' said the Whale. 'What is it like?''Nice,' said the small 'Stute Fish. 'Nice but nubbly.''Then fetch me some,' said the Whale, and he made the sea froth up withhis tail.'One at a time is enough,' said the 'Stute Fish. 'If you swim tolatitude Fifty North, longitude Forty West (that is magic), you willfind, sitting _on_ a raft, _in_ the middle of the sea, with nothing onbut a pair of blue canvas breeches, a pair of suspenders (you must _not_forget the suspenders, Best Beloved), and a jack-knife, oneship-wrecked Mariner, who, it is only fair to tell you, is a man ofinfinite-resource-and-sagacity.'So the Whale swam and swam to latitude Fifty North, longitude FortyWest, as fast as he could swim, and _on_ a raft, _in_ the middle of thesea, _with_ nothing to wear except a pair of blue canvas breeches, apair of suspenders (you must particularly remember the suspenders, BestBeloved), _and_ a jack-knife, he found one single, solitary shipwreckedMariner, trailing his toes in the water. (He had his mummy's leave topaddle, or else he would never have done it, because he was a man ofinfinite-resource-and-sagacity.)Then the Whale opened his mouth back and back and back till it nearlytouched his tail, and he swallowed the shipwrecked Mariner, and theraft he was sitting on, and his blue canvas breeches, and the suspenders(which you _must_ not forget), _and_ the jack-knife--He swallowed themall down into his warm, dark, inside cup-boards, and then he smacked hislips--so, and turned round three times on his tail.But as soon as the Mariner, who was a man ofinfinite-resource-and-sagacity, found himself truly inside the Whale'swarm, dark, inside cup-boards, he stumped and he jumped and he thumpedand he bumped, and he pranced and he danced, and he banged and heclanged, and he hit and he bit, and he leaped and he creeped, and heprowled and he howled, and he hopped and he dropped, and he cried and hesighed, and he crawled and he bawled, and he stepped and he lepped, andhe danced hornpipes where he shouldn't, and the Whale felt most unhappyindeed. (_Have_ you forgotten the suspenders?)So he said to the 'Stute Fish, 'This man is very nubbly, and besides heis making me hiccough. What shall I do?''Tell him to come out,' said the 'Stute Fish.So the Whale called down his own throat to the shipwrecked Mariner,'Come out and behave yourself. I've got the hiccoughs.''Nay, nay!' said the Mariner. 'Not so, but far otherwise. Take me to mynatal-shore and the white-cliffs-of-Albion, and I'll think about it.'And he began to dance more than ever. 'You had better take him home,' said the 'Stute Fish to the Whale. 'I ought to have warned you that he is a man of infinite-resource-and-sagacity.'So the Whale swam and swam and swam, with both flippers and his tail,as hard as he could for the hiccoughs; and at last he saw the Mariner'snatal-shore and the white-cliffs-of-Albion, and he rushed half-wayup the beach,
