American Tall Tales Author:Adrien Stoutenburg, Richard M. Powers (Illustrator) Features eight American folk heroes: Paul Bunyan, Pecos Bill, Stormalong, Mike Fink, Davy Crockett, Johnny Appleseed, John Henry, and Joe Magarac.
This book is considered a so-called "living" book, but my daughter and I found it very dry and long-winded. There are better tall tale compilations available.
