3-One Story Many Colors

While collecting the folktales it was noticed that there are many tales which are told and heard in other variations also either in the same country or in other countries. It was interesting to know about them and read them. Out of curiosity a series entitled "One Story and Many Colors" was initiated and a few books under it were prepared. It was difficult to find such tales but a serious effort was made to accomplish this task. Each of these books collect tales from around the world selected to specific tale type.

All books start with the normal popular and very well known story to refer to and after that its other variations are given. Against every title two figures are given in parentheses. The first one denotes the number of the stories of and the second one denotes the number of the pages (A4 size) of the book. Some of the books are available on Internet for readers to read. Click on them and enjoy reading. Click on them read them enjoy reading them and tell them to as manay as you can. Please do comment about them on the E-Mail address given below. Thanks.
