<br/><br/> Contiene: I hope that adolts too may enjoy it, this article on American folklore is really writen for boys and girls. So, instead of cncerning myself with those categories, variances, and the ories in which scholars lover to delve. Folklore hold special values for all children. The child of American ancestry gests from that his native folk songs and tales a sense of continuity, an awareness that his family has its roots in the nations's past. The American child of foreign birth has a greater sense of belonging when he finds that the songs which his mother sings and the tales which his father tells have almost exact counterparts in this, the land of his adoption.
