Thank you so much for putting these up! I haven't read these since I was a child but can say that the stories influenced me greatly. Thank you! :o)

i think an awful lot dies thru translations. and i wonder why arabs don't change, eg, "paul" to "pol" as they write but all the other people change their names to unrecognizeable forms. if you know the original names you can't get used to it anyway.

To Mike--
Maybe you'd like to write an capital "I" that to use an i. The response you had was a very well-written one.

In all actuality, there was no one author, but a group of collected stories. Just thought i'd clear that up. Our Response: Yes, originally there is no one author. However this version is of only selected tales that were selected and edited by Lang.
