Five charming fairy tales. "They all point a moral that is never too
apparently on the surface and they all hold our undiverted attention
through their fluent writing, their delicate fantasy, and their
exquisite simplicity."--_Boston Transcript._
"A whimsical view of the progress of woman ... wise and witty."--_Kansas
City Star._
"Told with much humor and they satirize many foibles of
mankind."--_Boston Budget and Beacon._
"Although the full significance of these delicate fancies will be
grasped only by older people, they have enough of the fairy spirit to
prove enjoyable to children also."--_Baltimore News._
With illustrations, $1.50.
