Book Review of The Fool of the World and the Flying Ship: A Russian Tale

The Fool of the World and the Flying Ship: A Russian Tale
reviewed on + 3352 more book reviews
Helpful Score: 2


An important Russian folktale - interesting and faithfully taken from the famous fabulist Arthur Ransome. The illustrations are colorful and pertinent to the telling of the story. The Fool, as is usual with folk-tale fools, is no fool at all - and he knows the importance of helping others.
