Never were there more popular books of Fairy Tales than these famous
collections made by Andrew Lang. At his able hands the romantic
literature of the world has been laid under contribution. The
folk-lore of Ireland, the romance of the Rhine, and the wild legends
of the west coast of Scotland, with all the glamour and mystery of the
Scottish border, have contributed to this famous series of fairy
tales.
Here are the tales that have delighted generations of children, some
culled from old English versions of the eighteenth century, some
modernized from quaint chap-books, and all handsomely and modernly
illustrated. With the aid of a scholar such as Mr. Lang, the entire
world has contributed to this famous series. There is material here
for years of delight for children.
Each volume is profusely illustrated, printed on velvet-finished
paper, bound in cloth, with a very attractive stamp in ink and
gold. Small 12mo, price 75 cents.
These books should be read in the following order: 1, The Blue Fairy
Book; 2, The Red Fairy Book; 3, The Green Fairy Book; 4, The Yellow
Fairy Book.
