商品描述: The perfect addition to every family s home library and just right for sharing aloud, American Tall Tales introduces readers to America s first folk heroes in nine wildly exaggerated and downright funny stories.

Here are Paul Bunyan, that king-sized lumberjack who could fell ten white pines with a single swing ; John Henry, with his mighty hammer; Mose, old New York s biggest, bravest fireman; Sally Ann Thunder Ann Whirlwind, who could outgrin, outsnort, outrun, outlift, outsneeze, outsleep, outlie any varmint ; and other uniquely American characters, together in one superb collection.

In the tradition of the original nineteenth-century storytellers, Mary Pope Osborne compiles, edits, and adds her own two cents worth and also supplies fascinating historical headnotes. Michael McCurdy s robust colored wood engravings recall an earlier time, perfectly capturing all the vitality of the men and women who carved a new country out of the North American wilderness.
