Books published by publisher The Great Books Foundation

In the Junior Great Books Program, you read and discuss a number of stories. The stories have been chosen for three reasons: we believe you will enjoy them; we believe that each story has more meanings than you are likely to find on your own; and we believe that your discussions of the meanings of these stories can affect the way you look at yourself, other people, and the world. The included stories are: The Master Cat (Pus-in-Boots) and Cinderella by Charles Perrault; The Fisherman and His Wife by Lucy Crane; Little Red Riding Hood and The Turnip by Walter De La Mare; Kaddo's Wall and Anansi's Fishing Expedition by Harold Courlander and George Herzog; Tattercoats by Joseph Jacobs; Winnie-the-Pooh and Prince Rabbit by A. A. Milne; The Serpent by Rose Laura Mincieli; The Foolish Man by Virginia A. Tashjian; The Water of Life by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm; The Fire on The Mountain by Wolf Leslau and Harold Courlander; Janot Cooks for the Emperor By Harold Courlander; Beauty and the Beast by Andrew Lang; The Mousewife by Rumer Godden.
