Personal Review: Story Tree: Tales to Read Aloud (Tell Me a
Story) (Hardcover with CD) by Hugh Lupton
This book is a collection of well-known tales from different cultures,
including Indian, Norwegian, African-American, etc.. Some of the stories
have some tension and may be rather scary, but some kids may like them.

The book includes:--The magic pot: about a magical pot that is always full
of food, and how it needs to be managed.
--Monkey see, monkey do: about a hat salesman who upsets his cart and
a bunch of monkeys who steal his hats. The salesman must be quite
clever to get his hats back.--Sweetest song: about a little girl who goes out
to pick flowers, and forgets to mind where she is going, soon wandering off
deep into the forest. She has to think fast to get away from the wolf who
follows her.
--Little Lord Feather-frock: about a cat, blackbird, and rooster who all lived
together. A cunning fox starts carrying them away, and the cat and the
blackbird must scheme to free the rooster.
--Three billy goats gruff: about 3 billy goats who need to cross a bridge that
has a terrible troll living under it. They manage to get across by relying on
the troll's greediness and their own brute strength.
--Little red hen: about a hen that finds a seed and asks other animals to
help her plant it and take care of it. But no one is interested into helping
her, so she must do the work herself. When the seed grows and ripens,
she makes it into bread and keeps it for herself since no one helped her
with the work.
--Blue coat: about a little boy with a favorite coat made out of blue fabric.
When he wears out the coat, his mother cuts it down and makes a vest out
of it. This happens again and again until the coat is reduced to a button.All
told, the book has about 4100 words.
