It was Romer Wilsonâs intention to combine the familiar with the unknown, and introduce authors and cultures from a variety of countries. As a researcher, she uncovered a remarkable amount of stories from other countries that remain unknown today. The collection gives voice to unique and intriguing tales that inspire children to have a better understanding of how people and their stories are alike despite major differences.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough his Preface and commentary, Jack Zipes shows how all three books are a means to bring people together in the name of peace and justice.
