SuitabookGenies, giants and a walrus
Mark Binder
- Reading
- Try one story at a time, then invite your reader to choose whether to continue with a similar tale or switch to a different kind; the collection spans several traditions and forms.
- Themes
- Old tales, fresh tellings: The collection brings together retold and invented stories alongside older favourites, drawing on material from several traditions. The approach gives space to both change and continuity: stories can feel fresh while remaining connected to earlier forms.
- Worth knowing
- The contents include theft and perilous or supernatural adventures, such as Ali Baba and the Forty Thieves, “The Monkey’s Paw”, and stories featuring witches and giants.
