O knihe

"The Olive Fairy Book", the eleventh in Andrew Lang's "Coloured" Fairy Book series, was originally published in 1907. This edition contains all 29 of the original stories and all 51 of the original illustrations. *** The collections were specifically intended for children, and consequently edited for that end. *** When Andrew began publishing these books there were almost no English fairy tale books in circulation. The series proved of great influence in children's literature, and inspired a host of imitators. The series also proved to be an inspiration to J.R. Tolken and his Middle-Earth collection of novels. *** This book contains these stories: Madschun, The Blue Parrot, Geirlaug the King's Daughter, The Story of Little King Loc, 'A Long-bow Story', Jackal or Tiger?, The Comb and the Collar, The Thanksgiving of the Wazir, Samba the Coward, Kupti and Imani, The Strange Adventures of Little Maia, Diamond cut Diamond, The Green Knight, The Five Wise Words of the Guru, The Golden-headed Fish, Dorani, The Satin Surgeon, The Billy Goat and the King, The Story of Zoulvisia, Grasp all, Lose all, The Fate of the Turtle, The Snake Prince, The Prince and Princess in the Forest, The Clever Weaver, The Boy Who Found Fear at Last, He Wins Who Waits, The Steel Cane, The Punishment of the Fairy Gangana, and The Silent Princess. * * * * Check out the other Andrew Lang books published by Flying Chipmunk Publishing at www.FlyingChipmunkPublishing.com, or Friend us on Facebook for our latest releases.
