Andrew Lang (1844 – 1912) was a Scots poet, novelist, literary critic, and contributor to the field of anthropology. He is best known as a collector of folk and fairy tales. Lang was also a prolific author of works both fiction and non; he wrote his own fairy tales such as Prince Prigio (1889) and Prince Ricardo of Pantouflia (1893), and wrote numerous historical texts. Andrew Lang was great friends with Robert Louis Stevenson and H. Rider Haggard, with whom he wrote The World's Desire (1890). Preferring romance over realism, he admired their works as well as those of Alexandre Dumas Père, Henry Fielding, William Makepeace Thackeray, fellow Scot Robert Burns and many others. A Fairy's Blunder by Andrew Lang is a short story with fairy tale shades describing true and generous ideas of help and support. The plot of the story focuses on a fairy whose name was Dindonette. She was the best creature in the world with the kindness heart and also smart, brave, strong. No wonder for a fairy creature! But as for drawbacks; despite her kindness soul, her results of work turned out to make people upset and caused pain. One day she thought to make all aged people young again as they were and very very young children make grown up men. Taking into account her previous experience the results will astonish everyone.
