Publisher's Synopsis
Once upon a time, hundred's of years ago, many, many, fairy tales were published throughout Germany and Europe, most notably by the Brother's Grimm, whose stories like Snow White, and Cinderella, are well known all over the world. However, many lessor known authors, also published fascinating stories during those times. Sadly, many of their stories have remained buried on book shelves amid the fog of time. For the first time ever, Nana Riggs, has brushed aside all cob-webs, and brings to you a collection of new and unfamiliar stories, to share with all fairy tale lovers, young and old. All ten stories in this book have been deemed charming, clever, interesting, and highly entertaining by school teachers, and editors alike. Most of these stories, if not all, are tales with a moral to the story, reminiscent of our great-grandmother's, or great-grandfather's, fairy tales-folklore. There are no stories inside this book that lead to grisly murders, and or the eating of little children. Suitable reading for middle-grade readers, grades five through eight; age ten to fourteen, and of course grown ups, who love fairy tales. Nana's stories are her own renditions, interpretations, variations, and or adaptations, from all authors listed. William Hauff: 1786-1859. Hans Christian Andersen: 1805-1875. Richard Van Volkmann-Leander: 1830-1889. Charles Perrault: 1703-1628 Theodor Storm: 1817-1888, and many others. Be sure to look for Nana's other books, coming soon in 2014. *Grandmother's Fairy Tales From Europe* And *Fairy Tale-Bedtime Stories*
