women submitted by rjsjwilliams on July 27, 2018, 4:13pm Jane Yolen always writes good literature. There are several folktales that feature women and their heroics.
Good reading.

Awesome Book submitted by timdufresne on August 10, 2018, 12:59pm This was such a great book and a fun read.

somewhat ho-hum submitted by camelsamba on June 25, 2019, 9:59pm I like the idea behind this – folktales with strong female protagonists! - but found the tellings to be somewhat ho-hum.

Not one Damsel in Distress : : World Folktales for Strong Girls submitted by lstorc on July 18, 2019, 7:59pm This makes for good bedtime stories. It's nice for everyone to see female protagonists, and the tales are calm enough for sleep to follow.
