“FAIRY TALES FROM MANY LANDS” is one of the all-time children’s classics. Between 1911 and 1938 it was reprinted on no less than 7 occasions – a record for a children’s book. Like Charles Perrault, the Grimm Bros. and Andrew Lang before her, Katherine Pyle has collected 15 stories from around the world, then edited and illustrated them. Herein you will find the stories of: The Seven Golden Peahens Mishosha, The Magician Of The Lake Haamdaanee And The Wise Gazelle The Two Sisters The Feather Of The Zhar Bird The Beautiful Maria Di Legno The Evil One Who Married Three Sisters The Faithful Dog Kempion Buttercup The Sun And The Moon How The Elephant And The Whale Were Tricked Cherry Diamonds And Roses And Pearls; and The Three Cows These are not the usual fare of fairy tales, which was why the book has been so successful. Here are tales from Serbia, the American Indians, the spice island of Zanzibar, the Hindus of India, the Cossacks, the Romans, Norse, Italian, Turkish and more besides. So sit back with a steamy beverage and be prepared to be entertained for many-an-hour with this series of forgotten children’s stories. If and when you come to pick up the book where you left it, don’t be surprised if you find a younger reader is now engrossed in these stories and is somewhat reluctant to let it go. 10% of the net sale will be donated to charities by the publisher. ============== KEYWORDS/TAGS: fairy tales, folklore, myths, legends, children’s stories, childrens stories, bygone era, fairydom, ethereal, fairy land, classic stories, children’s bedtime stories, happy place, happiness, seven, golden peahens, mishosha, magician, lake, haamdaanee, wise gazelle, two sisters, feather, zhar bird, beautiful, maria di legno, evil one, marry, three sisters, faithful dog, kempion, buttercup, sun, moon, elephant, whale, trick, cherry, diamonds, roses, pearls, three cows, Serbia, American Indian, Native American, spice islands, Zanzibar, Hindu, India, Cossack, Roman, Italian, Italy, Japanese, Scots, Scottish, Norse, Viking, Turkish, Turkey, Creole, English, England, French, France, Irish, Ireland,

More English Fairy Tales - Illustrated by John D. Batten

‘More English Fairy Tales’ is a collection of stories written by Joseph Jacobs, accompanied by the masterful black-and-white illustrations of John D. Batten. It includes such tales as ‘The Pied Piper’, ‘Tattercoats’, ‘The Golden Ball’, ‘Coat O’Clay’, ‘The Children in the Wood’, ‘The King of England and his Three Sons’, and ‘The King of Cats.’ Joseph Jacobs (1854 – 1916), was an Australian folklorist, literary critic, historian and writer of English literature, who became a notable collector and publisher of English folklore. Heavily influenced by the Brothers Grimm and the romantic nationalism ubiquitous in his contemporary folklorists, Jacobs was responsible for introducing English fairy tales to English children, who had previously chiefly enjoyed those derived from French and German folklore. John Dickson Batten (1860 – 1932), was a British figure painter, as well as a book illustrator and printmaker. He illustrated almost all of Jacob’s works, including, English Fairy Tales (1890), Celtic Fairy Tales (1892), Indian Fairy Tales (1912), and European Folk and Fairy Tales (1916). In addition, Batten is also celebrated for his delicately rendered imaginings of Arabian Nights and Dante’s Inferno. Presented alongside the text of ‘More English Fairy Tales’, his illustrations further refine and elucidate Joseph Jacob’s enchanting narratives. Pook Press celebrates the great ‘Golden Age of Illustration‘ in children’s classics and fairy tales – a period of unparalleled excellence in book illustration. We publish rare and vintage Golden Age illustrated books, in high-quality colour editions, so that the masterful artwork and story-telling can continue to delight both young and old.

Books in the Life of a Child explores the value of books and reading in the stimulation of children's imagination and their fundamental importance in the development of language and true literacy. It examines not only the vast range of children's books available but also how to introduce young people to the joys of reading in the home, the school and in the community. The book has been written as a resource for all adults, especially teachers, student teachers, librarians and parents, and those who care about the value of literature for children. It is a comprehensive and critical guide, with chapters on the history of children's literature and an analysis of its many forms and genres, from poetry, fairytale, myth, legend and fantasy, through realistic and historical fiction, to humour, pulp fiction and information books.
