Den Hauge, Netherlands –
Something I’ve always found interesting is looking at the similarities and differences between cultures.
One aspect of this, in particular, are the fairy tales and other stories that we tell our kids as they are growing up.
And having grown up in the U.S., a descendant of mostly European ancestors…
Among other kids with similar ancestry…
There are a lot of stories and tales that I grew up with that came from Europe.
Yet go to any particular region in Europe and dig deep enough, I can come up with tales that are unfamiliar and new to me.
Some of them have to do with the nature of the tales.
