Fairy Tales Not to Miss

A wonderful collection of lesser-known Victorian fairy tales. The anthology includes well-known writers such as Lewis Carroll, Edith Nesbit, and Rudyard Kipling - as well as 19 others. Black and white illustrations are included, and add to the fun. It's a great book to have in the spare bedroom for guests to thumb through, or even out in the living room. Pick it up - you won't be able to put it down!
