Cherished by readers of all ages, Andrew Lang's The Blue Fairy Book, became an immensely influential collection of stories when it was first published in 1889. Its success was especially due to the wide extent of foreign-language sources from which the stories were drawn, giving many of these tales their first appearance in English.
The Blue Fairy Book is not only a classic, it is the quintessential fairy tale book and still retains its charm today.
