First published in the USA 1964.Stated 1966 Third Printing128 pages FROM THE DUSTJACKET: Here are seventeen stories of dwarfs – some small enough to sit in a horse’s ear or sleep in a cockleshell, all of them quick-witted and most of them kind. Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs lives again in this crisp retelling. But many of the stories, like Knurremurre and The Girl Who Picked Strawberries, are new and strange, full of swift action and sudden changes or fortune. In an entertaining foreword the author explains that most dwarf stories come from Scandinavia and Germany, but she has included one from Japan and one from Arabia.
