About this book

A princess declines a royal proposal, and a courtier's careless boast turns envy into danger. The episode of Avenant and the golden-haired princess gives a glimpse of the royal courts, sudden reversals and tests of loyalty in this collection edited by Hamilton Wright Mabie. Gathered for children, the tales bring ordinary human wishes into settings where unusual powers can change a person's fortunes.

Mabie's introduction gives the stories a further purpose. He connects imaginative play with education, artistic creation and scientific invention, treating wonder as part of the way people understand their world. His discussion of freedom, fairness and the rewards of patience offers adults a way to think about the tales alongside younger readers.
