Publisher's Synopsis
Fairy tales. They're often the first stories we hear and the ones that remain with us, deep in our subconscious. Princesses and princes, evil villains, dragons, hidden realms, mystical beings, battles between good and evil...these are the classic elements of fairy tales that are meant to suspend our imaginations in a world of fantasy and teach listeners to beware of the evils that lurk in the dark corners of our world. Fairy tales have survived hundreds of years of interpretations and re-tellings. They have been fractured and done anew over and again. But, what about new stories? Stories that embody all the classic features of those that have become embedded in our minds but that offer up new characters, fresh plots, and unique settings? Fantasia Fairy Tales is a collection of new stories told in the classic style that we love. This is the new generation of fairy tales. Step inside and find yourself falling, once again, for the magic of it all. Featuring stories by: Bryan Grafton, E. W. Farnswoth, Claudia Wair, Beverly Reynolds, Rollin Jewett, Anonymous, William Thompson, C.C. Loureiro, Alex Pickens, S. O. Fasrus, Jonathon Litten, Artyv K, Emma-Rae Jensen, Steve Carr, Gwendolyn Rose, Eric D. Lehman, Madeline L. Stout, K. C. O'Leary, John Colburn, and Clara M. O'Leary.
