Ann Redisch Stampler loves folk tales!  She is an award-winning picture book writer, most recently receiving the National Jewish Book Award  for The Rooster Prince of Breslov.  The Wooden Sword, her newest book--a folk tale from Afghanistan--is the very funny, slightly scary, and ultimately uplifting story of what happens when a good shah and a poor shoemaker cross paths in old Kabul.
