Written by Frances M. Malpezzi
Italian Americans make up one of the largest cultural groups in the United States.

Ghost Stories from the Pacific Northwest (American Storytelling)

Written by Margaret Read MacDonald
Ghosts of the Pacific Northwest can be just as mischievous as any others—shattering glass, waking people in the middle of the night, and sending families fleeing from their homes—but, truth be told, most of them are a pretty cheerful crew. In Ellensburg, Washington, one ghost even tags along on his granddaughter’s dates to make sure there’s no funny business.

Ghost Stories from the American South (American Storytelling)

Written by W. K. McNeil (Compiler, Editor)
This collection of supernatural tales stands apart from most ghost-story anthologies: every narrative comes directly from the folk traditions of the American South. While many of the stories were gathered over the past twenty‑five years, their settings stretch from the days of the Revolutionary War to modern times. Most have never appeared in print before, preserved instead through generations of oral storytelling.

Fair Is Fair: World Folktales of Justice

Written by Sharon Creeden
This collection brings together 30 stories about wise judges, quick‑thinking lawyers, and crafty tricksters. The tales come from many corners of the world—ancient Greece, Morocco, Germany, China, Ireland, and even the early American colonies. Some are so old they were told long before the Bible was written. Instead of offering a single definition of justice, the author lets the stories speak for themselves. Each one invites readers to decide for themselves: “That’s not fair!” or “Fair is fair.”
