THE SHOEMAKER'S APRON
A Book of Czechoslovak Fairy Tales and Folk Tales
Retold in English by Parker Fillmore. With illustrations and decorations by Jan Matulka.
A collection of twenty stories, drawn from original sources, and chosen for their variety of subject and range of interest. Here are fairy tales conceived with all the gorgeousness of the Slavic imagination; charming little nursery tales that might be told in nurseries the world over; folk tales illustrative of the wit of a canny people; and rollicking devil tales as surprising to the Anglo-Saxon imagination as they are entertaining.
