The 193 folklore selections in this collection were collected mostly by Tibetan students who retold what their elders shared with them while they were studying English at Qinghai Normal University, Xining City, Qinghai Province, PR China in the 1990s when family elders told stories to children whose families lacked televisions. At this time, elders transmitted stories that had been told for generations, imparting them to appreciative audiences, as attested by the collectors in introductory statements. Asian Highlands Perspectives has published earlier versions of many of these accounts. However, new unpublished selections are also featured. The astonishing variety of these narratives ranges from a primordial flood account (#183 Human-son Lehwherowand Sky-Nahgoome Descendants), Mi la tsi tsi 'little boy', a wild child who fled just like a wild animal when people approached and tricked children who didn't return home for several days or even years; stories about frogs, rabbits, bears, and other creatures; Uncle Ston pa, the trickster; ghosts; A rig rgad po, a devoted, very traditional Buddhist who is very direct in his manner; monsters; and many others. There has been no attempt to prevent duplication, so some stories are similar. While there are collections of Tibetan folklore in Tibetan, Chinese, English, and other languages,[1] the number of selections and variety in this volume, introductions by many of the collectors, and information about the tellers and collection details emphasize the value of this collection especially, in the year 2024, when many young children have never heard folklore from their family members, given the popularity and their preference for television cartoons. We sincerely thank the tellers, collectors, and editors who made this volume possible. [1] See the references following this introduction for partial lists of available material.
