Miriam's Tambourine: Jewish Folktales from Around the World

These fifty tales, drawn from nearly every age and every part of the world, reflect the length of Jewish history and the diversity of Jewish culture. Some will be recognized as variations (perhaps even the originals) of 'Snow White', 'Rapunzel', 'The Voyages of Sindbad the Sailor', and other familiar stories. But every tale is richly endowed with Jewish figures and themes.
