Humans of all eras and cultures have lived with fear: of becoming jaguar prey, of being besieged by Vikings or of nuclear holocaust. For millennia, huddled around campfires and hearths, we have created folktales to help us transform this fear into action, into solutions, into hope. Inspired by the residual fear and need for stories of resilience following recent terrorist attacks, Kathleen Ragan has scoured the globe and collected these 64 tales that respond to fear in its wide variety of incarnations. From the old Japanese woman who tricks the tengu monster to the bluebird that uses the Chinook wind to teach her mother compassion, "Outfoxing Fear" is a collection of positive, even Utopian, folktales for all ages, arranged thematically around topics such as the nature of fear and courage, the importance of laughter, and the need for hope.
