wonderful site!

Answer 2

I don't know of any specifically but I think that a good place to start would be to browse a bookstore or even maybe a bookstore's website.



Aside from regular folklore books, look in the children's section. Children's books often tell folktales from various cultures and may even have the source/tale name mentioned in the title.
