Folktales from around the world: Paul Bunyan (11:21) http://player.discoveryeducation.com/index.cfm?guidAssetId=DE27C726-A05A-4384-B258-6DF6DDA74B5F&blnFromSearch=1&productcode=US
Shares the tall tale of Paul Bunyan, a lumber jack whose legendary feats were as big as the American frontier. An engaging adjunct for language arts and social studies units, the program can also be used as a support for lessons on exaggeration, hyperbole, and different views of creation.
All about folktales: Folktales from afar: (15:10) http://player.discoveryeducation.com/index.cfm?guidAssetId=167F4E3C-D693-4F31-9F12-A3C9AC921A65
Folktales are viewed as a way of sharing the customs, values, and feelings of people from cultures different from our own. Especially selected to serve as a "magic window" to the people who first created them are The Tale Of The Gentle People (South America), Anansi the Spider (Africa), and The Crane Maiden (Japan).

Johnny Appleseed (10:56) http://player.discoveryeducation.com/index.cfm?guidAssetId=B932E29C-C030-40B7-AD54-68E928010DD7&blnFromSearch=1&productcode=US
A poem by Reeve Lindbergh, beautifully illustrated by Kathy Jakobsen, comes alive in this animated program narrated by Mary McDonnell. John Chapman was his real name, but almost everyone remembers him by his legendary name, Johnny Appleseed, the man who sprinkled apple seeds and planted trees all across the Midwest. His legacy remains strong today, not only for his botanical achievements, but also for the stories that he shared with children. His adventures are shared here through beautiful verse and art. Part of the Weston Woods Series.
