As someone who loves a good folktale (creepy or not) this book was perfect for what I was looking for. A great glimpse into the origins of some of the most known stories out there.

Such a nostalgic read just in time for the fall! I loved reading some of the folktales that I remembered hearing about since I was a kid, but also discovering new stories. If you are familiar with the classic folktales and fairy tales, then this book is a great companion read for you. Philip does a great job of showcasing the way folktales around the world are all rooted together in some of the stories they share.
