Showcasing narratives that celebrate strong, independent women, these fairy tales contain heroines that aren't reduced to being wives or witches!

They live freely, happily ever after, without restraint or narrowly defined roles.
These stories include:
• Atalanta the Huntress (Greece)
• Nana Miriam (Niger)
• Fitcher's Bird (Germany)
• The Girl and the Puma (Argentina)
• Li Chi Slays the Serpent (China)
• Brave Woman Counts Coup (US/White River Sioux)
• Mizilca (Romania)
• The Pirate Princess (Poland/Jewish)
• The Samurai Maiden (Japan)
• Molly Whuppie (England)
Accompanied by magical illustrations, these stories will capture the hearts and minds of young readers everywhere.
