Korean Children's Favorite Stories is a captivating collection of Korean folktales for children which are still being told, just as they have been for generations.

Some are Korean-specific, while others echoes those told in other countries. Written with wit and pathos, they unveil the inevitable foibles of people everywhere and expose the human-like qualities of animals and the animal-like qualities of humans.

These Korean fables pulsate with the rhythm of life and the seasons, transporting the reader to a wonderland where ants talk, a baby rabbit outwits a tiger, a tree fathers a child, and a toad saves a whole village.

Korean stories include:

  • The Story Bag 
  • The Pheasant, the Dove, and the Magpie 
  • The Bridegroom's Shopping 
  • The Bad Tiger 
  • The Great Flood 
  • The Pumpkin Seeds 
  • The Grateful Tiger 
  • The Three Pincesses and many more...
