The following is an assortment of traditional and contemporary folk tales and stories. The text range from very western stories to ones found around the world. Many of these stories would be ideal for use in an Early Years classroom. The general themes of this collection include: Legends, Traditional Tales, Family, Adventure, Overcoming Adversity and more. This list is far from complete and suggestions are welcome.
