As told by Julius Lester; illustrated by Jerry Pinkney The tales, originally written down by Georgian Joel Chandler Harris, were first published more than a hundred years ago and serve as the largest collection of African American folklore. Julius Lester retains the flavor of the tales, while dropping the heavy dialect of the originals and adding contemporary language and references to ensure that the stories will be understood and enjoyed by new generations of readers. The book is beautifully illustrated by Jerry Pinkney. The result is a treasure of a volume that delights all ages and belongs on every shelf. 1999
