We already own several of the back-list from this series, and when I saw this one pop-up on NetGalley I was so grateful to get a free ARC to review! As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own. We have read A Year Full of Stories and A World Full of Animal Stories and have loved them both. This book follows in their footsteps, and I’ve already ordered a hard-copy to have by my six-year-old’s bedside! The format is 1-3 pages per story, each from a different area of the world.
What is so lovely about this book is the depth of the stories, while also keeping them on the short side, which is ideal at bedtime! My son and I both love that the folktales are from all around the world, and it opens the door to greater discussions and education. As homeschoolers, this fits in really great into our kindergarten curriculum, Torchlight, which focus is on getting familiar with the countries of the world. I look forward to continuing to pick out stories to fit in with our weekly educational activities. Additionally, the illustrations are really wonderful as well!
This book is a great addition to your bedtime routine with your kiddos, home education or not!
