In \u003ci\u003eThe Violet Fairy Book, \u003c\/i\u003e we encounter strange and exotic tales from the far corners of the earth--Japanese, Serbian, Lithuanian, African, Portuguese, Rumanian, and Russian. A magical dog called Schippeitaro helps his Japanese master; a man outwits a dragon in a Rumanian tale; and a Swahili story tells about a youth who visits the King of the Snakes. Lang's compilation, with its rich narratives and vivid imagery, captures the heart of folklorists and kindles the love for storytelling in readers of all ages.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 416\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.3 x 8.4 x 5.4 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIllustrated:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e June 01, 1966\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"Books by splitShops","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52853140685024,"sku":"9780486216751","price":22.34,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0811\/5909\/4496\/files\/mJPRORnTUi9780486216751.webp?v=1781232002","url":"https:\/\/improvedinc.myshopify.com\/products\/the-violet-fairy-book-paperback","provider":"Improved Improper Input Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
