Other editions of book Legends in action;: Ten plays of ten lands

This is a collection of entertaining youth oriented plays that offers its multicultural roots in the folklore of different countries. It is ideal for children of different ages or varied abilities. The stories which we may attribute to one country may have roots in another country or in many different countries. Our concern here is the entertainment factor and the idea that good stories come from different sources around the world.Nellie McCaslin collected these stories and created the plays to offer a wide and varied selection of short, highly entertaining plays that could be used for classroom and production. The concept was to involve as many children as possible, at different levels of ability and to present as much education in a highly entertaining production format as possible. Too many times a long play does not meet the particular needs of a class; several short plays, on a single flexible theme, can better serve the situation.
