Grandmother's Tales about Foreign Lands. Arabian, English, German, Spanish, Belgian, Italian, Icelandic, Egyptian, Turkish, Chinese, Finnish, Hungarian, Indian, Swedish and Other Tales

Tales are like flowers: in each country they take their own form and color. Among the most disparate nations, one can find tales with almost identical content. But what a difference there is in characters, descriptions, and small details -... they add charm and beauty to the tales!
This collection from 1912 includes tales by writers of various nationalities (such as Kipling, Gustafson, Kavan, Galden, Dupuy), folk traditions gathered by natives of various countries (such as Hungarian, Spanish traditions, etc.), and Eastern tales in the artistic processing of European writers (Turkish and Spanish tales by the famous Edward Labulé, Arabic - by Mrs. Barbier).
I hope the reader will laugh at something, learn something, and feel something touch his soul.
