Reviews

"This collection can (and indeed should) be used as a source for all folklorists, fieldworkers, and ethnoraphers, not merely those interested in children's folklore...recommended reading for every new student in folklore and a book that any floklorist will count as a valuable addition to his or her library." -- Journal of American Folklore
