Object numberBKS.663
DescriptionThese nineteen bright and charming fairy tales of Hawaii are recreated by one of the world's most gifted writers. Padraic Colum brings to them a rare feeling for the things of the imagination, and he tells them with the poetry, imagery, and enchanment belonging to this land of wide beaches, deep forests, and azure skies. These legends have been treasured by Hawaiians from time immemorial and have captivated Americans--children and adults alike--since they first appeared in English in 1937. Like the Arabian Nights and the stories of Hans Christian Anderson, they can be read again and again, with growing pleasure.On View
