Summary

Well before his debut in Shrek, "Puss in Boots" was making a name for himself in the Panchatantra. Considered one of the most influential written records of oral folklore, this Indian collection of more than 700 animal fables and folk stories dates back more than 1700 years ago. Dr. Harvey shares a French version from 1697, as well as "Iron Heinrich" - or "The Frog Prince" - from Grimm.
