Islamic philosophy, and in one case during a detailed description of human anatomy

king's curiosity about the sequel would buy her another day of life.
The Indian folklore is represented by certain animal stories, which reflect influence from
ancient Sanskrit fables. The Jataka is a collection of 547 stories, which are for the most part
moral stories with an ethical purpose. The Tale of the Bull and the Ass and the linked Tale of
the Merchant and his Wife are found in the frame stories of both the Jataka and the Arabian
Nights."

46 "... Adventures of Huckleberry Finn...”
"Adventures of Huckleberry Finn (1884) (often shortened to Huck Finn) by Mark Twain. The
book is noted for its innocent young protagonist, its colorful description of people and places
along the Mississippi River, and its sober and often scathing look at entrenched attitudes,
particularly racism. The drifting journey of Huckleberry Finn and his friend, runaway slave
Jim, down the Mississippi River on their raft may be one of the most enduring images of
escape and freedom in all of American literature."

47 "... Gulliver's Travels ..."
"Gulliver's Travels (1726, amended 1735), officially Travels into Several Remote Nations of
the World, in Four Parts. By Lemuel Gulliver, First a Surgeon, and then a Captain of several
Ships, is a novel by Jonathan Swift that is both a satire on human nature and a parody of the
"travellers' tales" literary sub-genre. It is Swift's best known full-length work, and a classic of
English literature. The book became tremendously popular as soon as it was published
(John Gay said in a 1726 letter to Swift that "it is universally read, from the cabinet council to
the nursery"), and it is likely that it has never been out of print since then. The book
presents itself as a simple traveller's narrative with the disingenuous title Travels into
Several Remote Nations of the World, its authorship assigned only to "Lemuel Gulliver, first
a surgeon, then a captain of several ships"."

48 "...Peter Pan..."
Peter Pan is a character created by Scottish novelist and playwright J. M. Barrie (1860–
1937). A mischievous boy who flies and magically refuses to grow up, Peter Pan spends his
never-ending childhood adventuring on the small island of Neverland as the leader of his
gang the Lost Boys, interacting with fairies and pirates, and from time to time meeting
ordinary children from the world outside.
Barrie never described Peter's appearance in detail, leaving much of it to the imagination of
the reader and the interpretation of anyone adapting the character. He describes him as a
beautiful boy with a beautiful smile, "clad in skeleton leaves and the juices that flow from
trees".
