Do you think that old stories are all about princes and princesses, knights and heroes, giants and monsters? Not always . . . these are stories from around the world about girls like you and girls you might know: clever, strong, brave and resourceful. If you are aged between 7 and 12 years old you will enjoy reading the stories of Vasilisa, who wasn’t afraid of the deep dark forest; Mollie Whuppie, who knew how to trick a giant; Tipingi, who was able to call on her friends to help her get out of trouble; Tegwedd, who used her magic powers to help others; and many more fearless girls. Fiona Collins has been a storyteller for a long time. She knows the old tales, and how to make them fresh and new. With magical illustrations of these young heroines by talented artist Ed Fisher, this is a book to treasure. | Folk Tales For Bold Girls by Fiona Collins, Hardcover | Indigo Chapters
