Book Review:- The Kingfisher Treasury of Stories for Children

The Kingfisher Treasury of Stories for Children is a very good collection of children's stories that come from all around the world, from west to east, Canada to Japan, north to south, Russia to New Zealand. The stories include very old traditional stories such as the story of the King in Greece who wanted to be very rich and was granted his wish. So that every thing he touched would become gold but he could not eat because his food turned to gold. Also there are very new stories including a very simple story about New Zealand by a famous New Zealand author, Margret Mahy. A lot of old stories are a little cruel or have some hard lesson. The book is very well illustrated and my children and me enjoy reading this very much.
