Herein you will find 12 illustrated stories of the myths and tales of modern Greece. In this volume you will find the Grecian tales of:
The Fairy-Hunter
Fairy Gardens
The Fairy Wife
Fairies Of The Waterfall
The Fairy Comb
A Fairy Wedding
The Fairy Ring
The Fairies’ Theft
The Haunted Ship
The Wonder Of Skoupa
The First Of May
The Fairy Mother

In every country there is a place  where good wishes come true: where the poor and the lonely are rich in castles and friends: and where sorrowful folk are happy. Here you will hear the birds singing and children laughing, all day long. The trees are full of blossoms and fruit. The sky is always blue, the grass green and soft. Under the trees dwell the fairies, and against the blue sky you will sometimes see the sheen of angels’ wings as the flit by. It is from this place that these children’s stories originate. But beware, some, a few, of these stories also contain sadness. Why? Because these stories are used to teach children the lessons of life, albeit in a more gentle way.

So, we invite you to curl up with this unique sliver of Greek Fairy culture not seen in print for over a century; and immerse yourself in the tales and fables of yesteryear made more believable by the 41 pen and ink illustrations by Henriette Reiss.
