Along with "The Winning Olwen"an Arthurian legend from the Welsh MabinogionThe Lilac Fairy Book includes "The False Prince and the True," "The Three Crowns," "The Heart of a Monkey," "The Enchanted Deer," "The Story of a Very Bad Boy," "The Lady of the Fountain," and more.
"The old favorite series on which most of us were brought upand our parents before us . . . Andrew Lang and his associates managed to break the stranglehold of the pious sentimentality handed out to children by collectingfrom all over the worldfairy tales of all people, and bringing out the volumes we all know and love."
