An ancient Hopi proverb states “He who tells stories, rules the world.” Well here is your chance to become a King, or a Queen for a day, or at least, a few hours……
Herein, are more than 70 stories and poems gathered from Scotland, Ireland, Sweden, Wales, China, England, Japan, New Zealand and other faraway places — are retold here by Olcott for children aged 10 and up.
Stories like Cinderella, Toads and Diamonds, Robin Goodfellow, Butterfly’s Diamond, Sleeping Beauty in the Wood, Timothy Tuttle and the Little Imps, The Coal-Black Steed, Elsa And The Ten Elves, The Fairy Island, The Four-Leafed Clover, The Enchanted Watch and Queen Mab abound.
When a child open the covers of this book, straightway they enter that land of all delights—the Fairy Realm. Here Fairy Godmothers reward good children, red-capped Little Men yield up their treasures of gold and magic gifts, while Pixies drop silver pennies in water-pails, and merry Spriggans and Fays hold nightly revels in the moonlight. Here, too, a child may dance in Fairy Rings, or fly away to Elfinland for a year and a day to play with wonder-children, pick Fairy flowers, listen to Fairy birds, and be fed on magic goodies.
And every story is about “Fairies black, grey, green, and white,” and every one has been selected for delightful humour, fancy, or ethical teaching.
