Produktbeschreibung

This is the 12th Fairy Book of Many Colours compiled and edited by Andrew Lang. The stories in all the books are borrowed from many countries – Ireland, Asia, Portugal, Wales, India, Scotland, Kenya, France and further afield. However much nations differ in policy and culture, they all agree in liking fairy tales. Herein you will find 32 illustrated fairy tales like The Shifty Lad, The False Prince and the True, The Jogi's Punishment, The Fairy Nurse, The King of the Waterfalls, A French Puck, Little Lasse, 'Moti', The Enchanted Deer, The Battle of the Birds, The Lady of the Fountain and many, many more. The stories are further enhanced by 6 coloured plates, 20 full-page pen and ink drawings and 26 In-Text sketches by H. J. Ford. This book contains many references to fairies. As to whether there are really any fairies or not, is a difficult question. Andrew Lang never saw any himself, but he knew several people who have seen them-in the Highlands - and heard their music. So, if ever you are near Nether Lochaber, go to the Fairy Hill, and you may hear the music your-self, but you must go on a fine day…… TABLE of CONTENTS The Shifty Lad The False Prince and the True The Jogi's Punishment The Heart of a Monkey The Fairy Nurse A Lost Paradise How Brave Walter Hunted Wolves The King of the Waterfalls A French Puck The Three Crowns The Story of a Very Bad Boy The Brown Bear of Norway Little Lasse 'Moti' The Enchanted Deer A Fish Story The Wonderful Tune The Rich Brother and the Poor Brother The One-Handed Girl The Bones of Djulung The Sea King's Gift The Raspberry Worm The Stones of Plouhinec The Castle of Kerglas The Battle of the Birds The Lady of the Fountain The Four Gifts The Groac'h of the Isle of Lok The Escape of the Mouse The Believing Husbands The Hoodie-Crow The Brownie of the Lake The Winning of Olwen
