MULTICULTURAL MYTHS, FOLKTALES, LEGENDS, AND FAIRY STORIES
Folktales contain the whole history and tradition of communicating through stories, whether to in-
form, teach, or entertain. In them are stories that are universal, transcending cultures, religions, and
the generations. There is no more delightful method to appreciate the nature of stories than to read
these tales—or even better, to sit with traditional storytellers—with an eye or ear open for possible
therapeutic themes.
