Retellings I've Read and Their Inspiration - Page 4

These are retellings and the story they are based on or inspired by. Classics, mythology, fairy tales, legends. The order is the book/inspiration source, then the retellings that are related. If I didn't have an exact book to use for the inspiration source, I used the closest I could find.
Edit! I just noticed that the Ballad of Mulan got moved and isn't in front of Magnolia Sword. Whoops! I can't reorder the books anymore.
