"The little ones, who so willingly go back with us to 'Jack the Giant-Killer,' 'Bluebeard,' and the kindred stories of our childhood, will gladly welcome Mrs. Burton Harrison's 'Old-Fashioned Fairy Tales,' where the giant, the dwarf, the fairy, the wicked princess, the ogre, the metamorphosed prince, and all the heroes of that line come into play and action. As they read the stories which compose this book they will meet with all the familiar actors of the fairy world in different scenes indeed, and with new deeds of daring, witchcraft, or charming benevolence, but still the same characters of the old-fashioned fairy lore. The graceful pencil of Miss Rosina Emmet has given a pictorial interest to the book, and the many pictures scattered through its pages accord well with the good old-fashioned character of the tales." —Frank R Stockton.
