Résumé

Tales from Silver Lands by Charles J. Finger is a captivating collection of folk tales gathered from the native peoples of Central and South America. Awarded the Newbery Medal in 1925, this illustrated volume introduces young readers to the rich storytelling traditions of the "Silver Lands"-a poetic name for Latin America. Drawing on his travels and deep interest in indigenous cultures, Finger presents nineteen short stories that reflect the values, beliefs, and imaginative spirit of the people who told them.
The tales feature magical animals, brave heroes, tricksters, and moral lessons, all conveyed in a lyrical, engaging style. What makes this collection unique is its cultural authenticity and respectful tone. Unlike many adaptations of the time, Finger sought to preserve the voice and flavor of the original stories, offering readers a genuine glimpse into unfamiliar worlds. Tales from Silver Lands remains a landmark in children's literature-an early and important effort to share global folklore with young audiences in a respectful and literary form.
