From Robert Browning's The Pied Piper of Hamelin and William Makepeace
Thackeray's The Rose and the Ring to Kenneth Grahme's The Reluctant
Dragon and J. M. Barrie's Peter Pan in Kensington Gardens, here are
seventeen classic stories and poems from the golden age of the English
fairy tale. Some of them amuse, some enchant, some satirize and
criticize, but each one is an expression of the joy of living.
Accompanied by illustrations from the original editions of these works
this collection will delight readers both young and old.
