Though intended for readers ages 4 through 8, noted Sesame Street host and storyteller Bob McGrath says that “The Greedy Sparrow is actually for everyone. It’s clever and humorous, and the wonderful illustrations not only add color but also truly interpret the story line.”	The Greedy Sparrow: An Armenian Tale By Lucine Kasbarian Illustrated by Maria Zaikina Marshall Cavendish Publishers, 2011 The Greedy Sparrow: An Armenian Tale is from the ancient Armenian oral tradition and culture, which was nearly obliterated during the Turkish genocide of the Armenians, Assyrians and Greeks in 1915. The author learned the tale from her father, editor and columnist C.K. Garabed, who would recite it to her at bedtime. He had learned it from his own grandmother, a celebrated storyteller from the Old Country. The tale was first put to paper by Armenian poet Hovhannes Toumanian at the turn of the 20th century. The Greedy Sparrow is the first time this tale has been presented in the English language as a children’s picture book.The story begins in old Armenia with a sparrow who catches a thorn in his foot. As he asks for help, he sets off an intriguing cycle of action that transports him through the Armenian countryside, encountering people engaged in traditional folkways. The Greedy Sparrow ends with a surprising twist and conveys moral messages about greed, selfishness, manipulation, and the use of one’s judgment. The Greedy Sparrow won the 2013 Nautilus Silver Award in the Children's Picture Book category. ITEM #131 Hardcover.    $17.99 Member Price    $16.20

	Folklore in Buffalo Philip Stevens, Jr., editor New York Folklore Society, 1984 From the Editor’s Introduction: Buffalo has attracted "...people from all parts of the U.S. and from all over the world to settle and establish new roots. Buffalo has been a frontier of the young Republic, a way station in the great westward migration, the western end of the Erie Canal, a northern terminus of the Underground Railway, site of the 1901 Pan American Exposition, a flourising port in the Great Lakes trade, the second largest city in the Empire State, a pleasant haven for the development of music, art, religion, scholarship, and athletics, and home of chicken wings and beef on kumelweck. It has also been the place where President McKinley was assassinated, a showpiece of urban decay and prime example of Northern economic decline, one of the fastest shrinking cities in the U.S., and holder of an international reputation for harsh winters . . . the soul of Buffalo is revealed through study and understanding of the genesis and meaning of its sentiments—its folklore."

	New York Folklore Journal Special 40th Anniversary Edition Philip Stevens, Jr., Editor ©1985, New York Folklore Society From the Editor’s Introduction: My plan for a special issue of New York Folklore to commemorate its 40-year history of continuous publication seemed simple and straightforward. The Society had been formed both to encourage and coodinate the great numbes of ordinary people across the state who were probing eagerly into the rich legacy of their custom, beliefs, and traditional history, and to help legitimize an enterprise that many considered no more than a quaint pastime; and the journal was established primarily to serve this interested general public, to provide a repository and a record, and to serve not just professional folklorists...So the plan for a 40th anniversary issue seemed obvious: all groups of people which the Society and its journal have served should somehow be represented."

	Somewhere West of Albany ... A Festschrift in Honor of Louis C. Jones ©1975, New York Folklore Society "Of the many broadening and liberating forces that were exerted in American folklore studies in the second quarter of the century to move the discipline from its narrow couse, few were more far-reaching than those which Louis C. Jones helped set in motion in the 1940’s. These efforts were seen in his advocacy and example at both academic and research levels, namely, in the teaching of folklore, in collecting, archiving, and the general professionalization of the field, no less than in the domain of research and scholarship." (from "Louis C. Jones and the Study of Folk Belief, Witchcraft, and Popular Medicine in American" by Wayland D. Hand). This special volume is a tribute to the first editor of the old New York Folklore Quarterly, reflecting both his research interests and his influence on the next generation of folkorists.

As the volume's editor, W. F. H. Nicolaisen, notes: "Folklore is not sociology but it shares with it the concept of register, foklore is not anthropology but it shares with it a desire to understand culture, folklore is not linguistics but it shares with it an interest in regional variations of speech, folklore is not history but the folklorist and the oral historian often have much in common..."
