about

folk•lore (’fok’lôr), n. Traditional customs, tales,
sayings, dances or art forms preserved among a people

As these stories were passed down from one generation to the
next, they became engrained in American culture. The characters
in these tales have been idolized by children, sensationalized by
adults, and are in all ways larger than life. We set out to tell these
stories the way they were told to us while growing up. Please join
us in the long-standing tradition of storytelling with these tall
tales. Sing along. Read them for yourself. Introduce them to your
children so they can learn, love and tell these stories the way they
have been told and retold for generations.
