"Writer Samir Tahhan transcribed these oral stories so that they would not disappear with the current generation of grandparents in Syria. Anthropologist Andrea Rugh presents the English versions along with her Introduction that analyzes the ongoing messages in the texts of these tales for children. Many of the pieces evolve from the colorful history of Aleppo."--BOOK JACKET.
