Royals Wise – and Otherwise, is a collection of 24 folktales from Asia – including tales from Armenia, Cambodia, China, India, Korea, Myanmar, Philippines, Singapore and Thailand. These versions of the stories were submitted by professional members of the Federation of Asian Storytellers and are written in a way that reflects how they like to tell the stories. So, if you are looking for some great stories to tell – whether you are, for example, a parent, teacher, librarian, or of course, a storyteller – it is our hope that you will find this anthology a treasure trove of tales to add to your repertoire, be it bedtime, in the classroom, or in performance.
