I enjoyed the diversity in this book, I would have enjoyed it more if the American Author might have researched actual indigenous folktales and stories to rewrite rather than taking Germanic European ones and making them "people with different color skin." What an insult to the people around the world, pretending that their stories are so subpar that the only stories are worth while are the European ones.
