When Apples Grew Noses And White Horses Flew - Jan Andrews

Product Description(Amazon.com)
In these three imaginative stories, Jan Andrews introduces us to Quebec’s traditional folktale hero, Ti-Jean. He’s an endearing character who is both wise and foolish, and though he does find himself in hard situations (often of his own making), in the end, he somehow manages to do what needs to be done. In “Ti-Jean and the Princess of Tomboso” he eventually outwits a greedy princess; in “Ti-Jean the Marble Player” he gets the best of a pint-sized scoundrel; and in “How Ti-Jean Became a Fiddler” he turns the tables on a too-clever-for-her-own-good seigneur’s daughter, and finds true love in the process.

MY THOUGHTS:  This is a really cute book.  Loved reading it.  It brought back memories of fairy tales I read as a child.  In each story there is a moral to the story.  Ti-Jean learns something in every story.  I give this book 4.....
