In \"My Lord Bag of Rice\" goldfish dancers and carp musicians delight the brave warrior Hidesato; in \"The Mirror of Matsuyama\" a lonely daughter endures her fate with the help of a \"shining disc\" given by her departed mother; \"The Jellyfish and the Monkey\" explains how that sea creature lost its bones; and the hero of \"Momotaro,\" a tale familiar to every child in Japan, is born from a peach that washes up on a riverbank. Settings and characters vary from tale to tale but the effect of each story in this volume is the same—to transport the reader, young or old, to mysterious shores, magical kingdoms, and mythical lands. \u003ci\u003eThe Japanese Fairy Book\u003c\/i\u003e is a wondrous introduction to Japan's rich fantasy tradition.\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Yei Theodora Ozaki","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48291403497723,"sku":"9781462916832","price":9.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0779\/3917\/9771\/files\/CoreSourceHub_b05f3ae5-237e-4dc2-8eb0-736503a93f79.jpg?v=1779190602","url":"https:\/\/indiepubs.com\/products\/japanese-fairy-book-9781462916832","provider":"IndiePubs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
