The "Wonder-Book" is a children's book, made up of classic legends,
re-told for them, and set in a slight frame-work, as entertainment given
to a company of children at Tanglewood. Here are the stories of King
Midas, Pandora, Medusa, Hercules, and the other inhabitants of Mount
Olympus. Children and adults will happily enter a world of magic and
imagination, led by Nathaniel Hawthorne one of the greatest American
storytellers.
