Classic Books
All the folktales that have been translated from various books
are in full.
They have been selected from all the continents depending on their
availability. The criteria of choosing them are - one, the book is old
enough - normally around or before 1900; two - the book is of rare
folktales, the book is out of print; three, all African books since they
can go out of print anytime; four - all Indian books available in English
but not in Hindi and certainly those books which are not available in
Hindi. A couple of more books have also sneaked in this list. The list of
presently available titles is given here with the number of their stories
contained in and translated. Two of them have already been published.
