About This Book

I have an early 1950s mimeograph version of this book edited by Lyd after Manuel died in WWII. Some stories appeared before the war as "Seven Bedtime Stories" in Literary Apprentice; "Tales Grandmother Told" in Oriental Touring Topics; and "Fables without Moral" by Manuel Arguilla in Story Manuscripts. My copy of "Philippine Tales and Fables" also includes "Stories of Juan Tamad". The preface indicates that these are Manuel & Lyd's childhood recollections of stories they heard. Many of the tales and fables are short--less than a page each.
