Amzat and His Brothers: Three Italian Tales

By Paula Fox

Book Overview

The tales--the title story, "Mezgalten", and "Olimpia, Cucol, and the Door"--come from the Tuscan village of Pianoro Vecchio and were told to the author by a friend. In all three tales, misfortune is reversed, cleverness rewarded--and storytelling language relished. Two-color illustrations.
