Here are twelve stories of magic and enchantment, of wicked gnomes and fairy godmothers, of princes and princesses, of poor lads and honest laborers, gracefully written in the manner of the old fairy tales by a gifted Englishman best known perhaps for his play, Victoria Regina. They have been chose for this collection by a well-known storyteller and specialist in children's literature. With their lovely imagery, their lilting use of language, their skillful twists of plot, these tales, drawn from a number of Housman's collections now out-of-print, have for years been favorites with young readers, especially girls, and with storytellers. They are a delight to read or to tell, and this new edition, beautifully illustrated by Julia Noona's sensitive pencil drawings, will be warmly welcomed by a new audience of young readers.
