## Overview

Uncle Remus: The Complete Tales is a deluxe omnibus edition compiling all four classic volumes of African-American folklore retold by Julius Lester with contemporary language and illustrated by Jerry Pinkney. This 100+ year-old collection offers a culturally rich, accessible, and beautifully illustrated reading experience that resonates across generations.

## Description

Brer Rabbit is causing trouble again for his fellow creatures Brer Fox, Brer Wolf, and the rest--this time in an omnibus edition that brings together all the stories from Tales of Uncle Remus, More Tales of Uncle Remus, Further Tales of Uncle Remus , and Last Tales of Uncle Remus . The Uncle Remus tales, originally written down by Joel Chandler Harris, were first published over a hundred years ago, and serve as the largest collection of African-American folklore. In this four-book series, Julius Lester masterfully retains the flavor of the tales, while dropping the heavy dialect of the Harris originals and adding contemporary language and references-- ensuring that the stories will be understood and enjoyed by new generations of readers. And, of course, the stories are beautifully illuminated by the slyly humorous full-color and black-and-white art of Jerry Pinkney. The result is a treasure of a volume that will delight all ages and belongs on every shelf.

### ⭐⭐ ARRIVED BADLY DAMAGED... I only get 35% refund...
*by F***R on 29 July 2020*

The book itself is beautiful, but it arrived in poor condition (see photo's) In fact it looks like used. I contacted Amazon.co.uk customer service and I get a 35% refund. Not a 100% (which I paid for the book). Is this fair ?
