Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales, Poetry, and Fairy Tales It was in one of these pits that three men and two women sat beside a fire which was blazing at the further end. A horse and-a large donkey were eating the grass which grew around them. A covered cart and van were standing, and a low tent with the covering nearly black with smoke, was fastened to the ground with long stakes. A. Large long dog lay curled up near the fire, and every now and then he lifted up his head as if in the act of listening. On the fire hung a large round pot; the way this was suspended was by a short chain fastened to two stakes, which were stuck in the ground.

This book was released on 2017-11-25 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Fairy Tales Every Child Should Know This collection of tales, gathered from the rich literature of the childhood of the world, or from the books of the few modern men who have found the key of that wonderful world, is put forth not only without apology, butwith the hope that it may widen the demand for these charming reports of a world in which the truths of our working world are loyally upheld, while its hard facts are quietly but authoritatively dismissed from attention. The widest interpretation has been given to the fairy tale, so as to include many of those classic romances of childhood in which no fairy appears, but which are invested with the air and are permeated with the glorious freedom of fairy land.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Village of Youth: And Other Fairy Tales The King was betrothed to a fair Princess named Rowena. She loved her future husband dearly, though his strange malady and the exodus of the old people from his dominions had clouded her happiness, and made her long for some way of alleviating his suffering. When the lovers were together they held no gentle, tender discourse. Uriel would only gaze at his betrothed with mournful eyes, and when she besought him not to be sorrowful he would say, Sweet lady, how can I be other than I am? Each loving word that falls from thy lips, each sweet smile that plays upon thy face, is as a dagger in my heart; for I remember how soon the bloom of youth will pass from thy cheeks and the softness from thy lips. Our Village, too, will become the Village of Eld. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Water Lily: An Oriental Fairy Tale As regards the subject-matter of the following poem, I can lay claim to no originality. The story is taken from a very remarkable book, entitled Oriental Fairy Tales, which I read once in early childhood, but have never since had the good fortune to meet with. The work is one of those in which, - as in Lalla Rookh, - a number of detached tales are strung, gem-like, on the golden thread of a connecting narrative the central figure in this latter being the Wander ing Angel, whose various experiences give rise to the different tales. At least, this is my recollection of the plan. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book Fierce Fairytales written by Nikita Gill and published by Hachette Books. This book was released on 2018-09-11 with total page 181 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Poet, writer, and Instagram sensation Nikita Gill returns with a collection of fairytales poetically retold for a new generation of women. Traditional fairytales are rife with cliches and gender stereotypes: beautiful, silent princesses; ugly, jealous, and bitter villainesses; girls who need rescuing; and men who take all the glory. But in this rousing new prose and poetry collection, Nikita Gill gives Once Upon a Time a much-needed modern makeover. Through her gorgeous reimagining of fairytale classics and spellbinding original tales, she dismantles the old-fashioned tropes that have been ingrained in our minds. In this book, gone are the docile women and male saviors. Instead, lines blur between heroes and villains. You will meet fearless princesses, a new kind of wolf lurking in the concrete jungle, and an independent Gretel who can bring down monsters on her own. Complete with beautifully hand-drawn illustrations by Gill herself, Fierce Fairytales is an empowering collection of poems and stories for a new generation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of Fairy Tales In the study of fairy tales, as of any portion of the curriculum or as in any presentation of subject-mat ter, three main elements must unite to form one com bined Whole: the child, the subject, and the teaching of the subject. In behalf of the child I want to show how fairy tales contain his interests and how they are means for the expression of his instincts and for his development in purpose, in initiative, in judg ment, in organization of ideas, and in the creative return possible to him. In behalf of the subject I want to show What fairy tales must possess as classics, as literature and composition, and as short-stories; to trace their history, to classify the types, and to supply the sources of material. In behalf of the teaching of fairy tales I want to describe the telling of the tale the preparation it involves, the art required in its presentation, and the creative return to be expected from the child.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Heart of Oak Books, Vol. 3: Fairy Tales, Narratives, and Poems A taste for good reading is an acquisition the worth of which is hardly to be overestimated; and yet a majority of children, even of those favored by circumstance, grow up without it. This defect is due partly to the fault or ignorance of parents and teachers; partly, also, to the want, in many cases, of the proper means of cultivation. For this taste, like most others, is usually not so much a gift of nature as a product of cultivation. A wide difference exists, indeed, in children in respect to their natural inclination for reading, but there are few in whom it cannot be more or less developed by careful and judicious training. This training Should begin very early. Even before the child has learned the alphabet, his mother's lullaby or his nurse's song may have begun the attuning of his ear to the melodies of verse, and the quickening of his mind with pleas ant fancies. As he grows older, his first reading should be made attractive to him by its ease and entertainment. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
