Asian Favourite Stories

Each book in this series is based on folk tales and legends from Asia, especially Southeast Asia and the stories have been specially written for children aged 8 to 12. The vocabulary and sentence structures have been kept simple so that the stories can be enjoyed without too much help, and a Glossary is included in every book giving explanations of the more difficult words. With attractive colour illustrations accompanying the stories, the Asian Favourite Stories Series aims to encourage children to read stories with a familiar background for their enjoyment and pleasure.
