My childhood book of stories was Danny Kaye’s Around the World Storybook. My grandmother gave it to me when I was in the second grade. The book was divided by region and each section had a different illustrator. I avoided looking at a picture of a green troll woman with a cleaver because it was too frightening. When I became a professional storyteller I retold many of the stories from the Danny Kaye book.
