Sabine Baring-Gould 
A Book of Fairy Tales 

Mr. Baring – Gould is an authority upon folk tales, so that this volume is a particularly welcome one. The stories which he has retold are largely taken from Perrault’s collection, the old yet ever fresh classics of the nursery such as 'Jack and the Beanstalk, ’ 'Cinderella, ’ 'The Sleeping Beauty, ’ 'Puss in Boots, ’ 'Beauty and the Beast, ’ and many more familiar in our mouths as household words. The tales are written in a manner likely to win the hearts of all youthful readers.
