Japanese Fairy Tales by Yei Theodora Ozaki (1908)

These stories are not literal translations, and though the Japanese story and all quaint Japanese expressions have been faithfully preserved, they have been told more with the view to interest young readers of the West than the technical student of folk-lore.

Bushido, the Soul of Japan by Inazo Nitobe (1900)

An Exposition of Japanese Thought.

Japanese Fairy Tales by Grace James (1923)

Contains stories like The Flute, Green Willow and many more.

Japanese Fairy World by William Elliot Griffis (1887)

The thirty-four stories included within this volume do not illustrate the bloody, revengeful or licentious elements, with which Japanese popular, and juvenile literature is saturated. These have been carefully avoided. It is also rather with a view to the artistic, than to the literary, products of the imagination of Japan, that the selection has been made.
