Traditional Literature is also known as Folklore, it tells the stories of a particular group that has been passed down to each generation. There are many different categories of this genre such as fable, myth, legend, religious stories, tall tale, and folktale. Our text has more information on each of these categories. Growing up Traditional Literature was always my favorite. My parents would read books from many different cultures, two that I would suggest are From Sea to Shining Sea compiled by Amy L. Cohn, and Spider Woman Stories: Legends of the Hopi Indians by G.M. Mullett.
