About this book

Royal gifts and a speaking horse accompany a princess as she leaves home to marry a distant prince. In The Goose Girl, her maid seizes control of their travels, and the princess finds herself tending geese at the royal court. This opening tale sets the pattern for a collection where everyday tasks and familiar objects can carry magical powers. Edric Vredenburg edits the volume, with illustrations by Jennie Harbour and retellings by the editor and others.

The contents bring together Cinderella, Hansel and Grethel, Beauty and the Beast, Thumbling and other fairy tales. In Snow-White and Rose-Red, two children welcome a bear to their hearth through the winter, then encounter an irritable dwarf in the woods. Kindness, treachery and strange visitors give these short narratives their shape. Readers can explore the tales individually, comparing the warmth of a cottage scene with the dangers and disguises of a royal household.
