SynopsisBrer Rabbit is causing trouble again for his fellow creatures Brer Fox, Brer Wolf, and the rest--this time in an omnibus edition that brings together all the stories from Tales of Uncle Remus, More Tales of Uncle Remus, Further Tales of Uncle Remus , and Last Tales of Uncle Remus . The Uncle Remus tales, originally written down by Joel Chandler Harris, were first published over a hundred years ago, and serve as the largest collection of African-American folklore. In this four-book series, Julius Lester masterfully retains the flavor of the tales, while dropping the heavy dialect of the Harris originals and adding contemporary language and references-- ensuring that the stories will be understood and enjoyed by new generations of readers. And, of course, the stories are beautifully illuminated by the slyly humorous full-color and black-and-white art of Jerry Pinkney. The result is a treasure of a volume that will delight all ages and belongs on every shelf.

My Mom Loves It!
I bought this because my mom was looking for a compilation of stories from when she was a kid. She has been reading it and loves it. We don't have any little ones in the family right now, but when her great grand kids start popping out, she'll have a great book of stories to read to them!Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned

Great example for all kids children and young adults.
I would use this book in a class to help students see what it is like to go Life . Ask them what they might do in these type of situations. I think it would be good for them to also see how they might be thinking This book would also be a good book for students to read on their own even and do a book report on it.Verified purchase: YesCondition: Pre-owned
