I always enjoy reading these collections, but so far I think this is the weakest I've read. I often come away from these books with a whole list of authors I'd like to explore further, and I didn't feel that way with this one at all. I also didn't like how the kids' comics were separated out from the adults.

This book was very good. They had about 10 different folklores and fairytales in this one book. The style of the writing was descriptive and some of the pictures told the story also. Some of the stories used old formal language to keep with the tradition of the time frame. Some of the stories told in this book I never heard before, so it was very interesting to me.

The rejected covers in this book are sometimes fascinating and sometimes baffling, but the stories behind them are what is most fascinating about this book. It's also amazing how differently people view the same piece of art.
