Features
|
- Includes a variety of folklore genres—folktales, myths, legends and fables—giving students in-depth understanding of all four of these key genres.
- Introductions to folkloristics, cultural contexts, and genres at the start of each chapter and at the start of each story provide insight into issues and problems relating to other peoples' stories as well as one's own.
- Lists of picture books and story collections, scholarly sources, professional resources, Web-based resources, and stories help students find visually appealing variants and resources for further reading.
- Classroom and library applications help students envision ways to use traditional literature across the curriculum and specifically in language arts (Ch. 5).
- A Glossary at the end of the book clarifies technical terms in folklore and literature.
- The Companion Website provides additional stories with greater diversity and includes a list of picture books and other media versions (audio and video) of the stories in the book—at no additional cost to students! Also on the Companion Website is a unique “Bibliographic Database of Picture Book Versions of Fables, Folktales, Myths, and Legends”—a searchable database of 295 (and growing) titles of traditional literature in picture book and story collection format. The database allows searches by author/illustrator, title, subject, character, genre and subtype, and geo/ethnic source.
