Excerpt from True Fairy StoriesThese are called lwe fairy stories, because each is intended to illustrate an important truth. Without ap pearing to be didactic, they teach lessons of patience, of gentleness, of obedience, of faith, of hope, of self-denial, of courage, of fidelity to every-duty. While originally designed for the use of kindergartners in imparting pleas ant ethical instruction to their. Pupils, it is believed that they will serve a still broader purpose as supplementary reading lessons for children in the second and third grades of the public schools.The two knight stories were written as an introduction to the mother plays bearing similar titles. These plays have been set to music and are included in Miss Blow's collection of songs and games for the kindergarten. Four stories - The Red Shoes, The elder-tree Mother, The Bell, and The Nightingale - are derived from Hans Christian Andersen, being altered in thought and lan guage to adapt them to younger readers than those for whom they were originally written.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
