The earliest known stories were Egyptian
and dated from 4,000 B.C.E. there are a
lot of collections of stories as you go from
one country to another. When you were
children you loved to listen or to read
these stories about how the world came
to be, of how the first man and woman
were created, and of some warriors
fought to save kingdoms or even just
young and pretty maidens in distress. Our
