Cinderella and Other Stories from the Blue Fairy Book by Andrew Lang

Andrew Lang (1844-1912) was a brilliant Scottish scholar, man of letters, and serious student of folklore. His series of fairy books is generally regarded as among the richest collections in the English language. Gathered from around the world -- from Norse and Icelandic sources, from the Far East, Mideast, Europe, Africa, Australia, and many other areas -- these books not only introduced generations of youngsters to the enchanting world of fairyland but gave adults an opportunity to return to the wonderful realm of make-believe.
This delightful selection of six popular tales from Lang's Blue Fairy Book includes charming versions of Cinderella, The Bronze Ring, Felicia and the Pot of Pinks, The White Cat, The Story of Pretty Goldilocks, and Snow-white and Rose-red. New illustrations by Marty Noble capture all the romance and magic of these time-honored tales.
Reset in large, easy-to-read type, these perennial favorites will delight today's young audiences just as they enthralled readers when first published over a century ago.
