This third fairy book is given over to the comic side of folk tradition: noodles and numbskulls, foolish wishes, clever animals and stubborn quarrels, like the two men of Nottingham who come to blows over sheep that do not exist. The Mouse and the Sausage, the Rats and their Son-in-Law and dozens more come from Grimm and many other collectors.
A generous collection of funny folk tales chosen for reading aloud, from the editors of The Fairy Ring. Download the free EPUB.
