Forty-one Japanese, Scandinavian, and Sicilian tales: “The Snow-Queen,” “The Cunning Shoemaker,” “The Two Brothers,” “The Merry Wives,” “The Man without a Heart,” and more.

About the Author

Andrew Lang (1844–1912) was a Scottish poet, novelist, anthropologist, historian, literary critic, and noted collector of folklore and fairy tales. Educated at the prestigious University of St. Andrews and Balliol College, Oxford, Lang became a published poet, editor, and journalist by the time he was thirty-one. He was fascinated by folklore, myths, local legends, and fairy tales throughout his entire life. Lang’s debut work, The Blue Fairy Book, was the first of twenty-five collections of stories for children.
