Grandsire Bear and Reynard the Fox

A Book of Fairy-Tale Bears

by Clifton JOHNSON (1865 - 1940)

Bears make an appearance in so many fairy tales and fables, it is difficult to imagine a fairy-tale world without them. However, in most of those fairy tales, the bear is just a side-character. In this volume, Clifton Johnson has collected 18 stories in which the bear takes a lead role. - Summary by Carolin
