Tatterhood: Feminist Folktales from Around the World

Ethel Johnston Phelps

From Japan to Norway, Scotland to Sudan, Tatterhood brings readers 12 folk tales - and 12 women whose cunning, hard work and physical strength are celebrated in each story. A family of three women teaches a burly man how to wrestle, a girl battles a fearsome bear and a young mother rescues her village from an elephant’s stomach. All the central characters are spirited females - decisive heroes of extraordinary courage, wit and achievement who set out to determine their own fate. This new edition features all-new illustrations.
