The Blue Fairy Book

Once upon a time …

Fairytales are a universal part of childhood. No matter what time or what place you grew up, you have at one point or another heard that classic phrase “once upon a time.” They are usually the first stories we ever hear or read. These types of tales set us up to understand the art of stories and storytelling, and they are certainly worth revisiting.

Here in The Blue Fairy Book, the first of Andrew Lang’s beloved collections of classic fairy stories, you will return to the tales you already know like “Beauty and the Beast” and “Rumpelstiltskin,” tales you maybe remember a bit different like “The Story of Pretty Goldilocks” and “The Sleeping Beauty in the Wood,” and some you may never have heard of like “The White Cat” and “Prince Darling.”

Lang is an author of multivolume history books about Scotland and English literature, and he is considered one of the top folklorists in England. In The Blue Fairy Book, he has compiled thirty-seven tales from Arabian Nights, Charles Perrault, The Brothers Grimm, Madame Leprince de Beaumont, and more, in a first-rate English language collection.
