Kevin Crossley-Holland has edited and compiled ten anthologies spanning three decades. These collections draw on his deep knowledge of northern European oral traditions, from The Faber Book of Northern Folk Tales (1977) to Light Unlocked: Christmas Card Poems (2005).
Several of these anthologies focus on British and Norse folk tales, while others explore supernatural themes. The Anglo-Saxon World (1982) gathers translated texts from the period Crossley-Holland has studied throughout his career, and A Treasury of Ghost Stories (1996) and Ghosts and Goblins (2001) collect spooky tales for younger readers.
