THE KINGFISHER TREASURE OF NURSERY STORIES

This is a collection of between 12 and 15 stories for the very young. Susan Price has chosen some of her favourites, from the great traditions of story-telling - folktales from Britain, the United States and the Caribbean and from Scandinavia and Germany are included, alongside tales by the Brother Grimm and Hans Christian Andersen. Parents will recognize the stories familiar in their own childhood and will share in the delight of their children hearing these classics for the first time. The editor has also written "Twopence in a Tub" which won The Other Award, "Odin's Monster" which was nominated for the Carnegie Model and "Ghost Drum" which won the Carnegie Model.
