English Fables and Fairy Stories

Many traditional stories — Dick Whittington and his Cat, Tom Thumb, Jack and the Beanstalk — join equally good but not so well know stories like the story of the tailor who slew two giants, or the maid who had to travel to the well at the World's End, and Tattercoats, the ragamuffin who became a princess. Reeves brings his qualities of humor to them all and enriches their age-old enjoyment
