This book is thoroughly recommended for inclusion on the shelf of all folklorists and lovers of fairy tales. A delightful read for both adult and child.

Tales include: The Magic Mirror, The Fox and the Wolf, The Ugly Duckling, The Enchanted Wreath, The Clever Cat, The Three Treasures of the Giants, The White Doe, The Princess Bella-Flor, The White Slipper and The Magic Book.
Andrew Lang (1844 – 1912) was a Scots poet, novelist and literary critic, with a passion for folkloric storytelling. Most of his volumes (including this, ‘The Orange Fairy Book’) were beautifully illustrated by Henry J. Ford (1860 – 1941), an inordinately talented artist who came to public attention with his illustrations for Lang. The books captured the imagination of British children and later became worldwide bestsellers in the 1880s and 1890s.
