Based on the PBS animated series of the same name, Mikhail Baryshnikov's Stories from My Childhood, ed. by Joan Borsten and Oleg Vidov, presents 11 Russian and European fairy tales, including such lesser known tales as Alexander Pushkin's ""The Golden Rooster"" and classics like ""Cinderella."" Baryshnikov provides the foreword; film stills (unfortunately, out of focus and quite grainy) from the Russian animation studio Soyuzmultfilm illustrate the text.
