Typical, really
I found a fairy tale anthology that matches my memory: about the right size and color, and published in time.
Turns out that my memory was faulty though. It wasn't a book of Eastern European fairy tales. It was a book of Eastern Bloc fairy tales: Eastern Europe, the Caucasus, Central Asia, Siberia, and the RFE.
So basically, she denied me access to a part of our heritage because the same book might make me empathize with those people. Guess she hates People of Color more than she loves our ancestors.
