This week’s tale takes us to sun-drenched plazas, Moorish castles, and enchanted olive groves…

Favorite Fairy Tales Told in Spain gathers beloved Spanish folk tales retold by Virginia Haviland (1911-1988), an American librarian and writer, who was an international authority in children’s literature. A part of Haviland’s celebrated international Favorite Fairy Tales series, this volume brings Spain’s oral storytelling heritage to life. The work features illustrations by Barbara Cooney (1917-2000), an American illustrator and writer of 110 children’s books.  In 1994, Cooney was nominated as the U.S. candidate for the prestigious Hans Christian Andersen Award, in recognition of her work as a children's book illustrator. Our first edition copy was published in 1963 by Little, Brown and Company.

From clever shepherds to magical birds, these stories blend wonder and wit with the warmth of a long-told tradition.
