Favorite Fairy Tales

Here are the stories that have sparked children's imaginations for centuries, gathered in one luminous collection. Cinderella slipper-ing through midnight balls, Little Red Riding Hood outwitting the wolf, Jack climbing his beanstalk toward giants and gold these are the tales that shape wonder. Logan Marshall has assembled the most beloved from Brothers Grimm, Perrault, and beyond, presenting them in language that flows like a bedtime voice reading in the lamplight. Each story carries its own magic: Talking animals, wicked stepmothers, wishes granted and lessons learned. The large clear type and illustrations (some in color) make this a book meant to be held in small hands and shared on laps. This is not merely a collection of stories. It is an inheritance, passed from generation to generation, the way these tales have always traveled: through voice, through print, through the particular alchemy of a child listening hard in the dark. For families who believe fairy tales still hold power, and for anyone who remembers what it felt like to first believe in magic.
