English Fairy Tales

Over a century ago, Jacobs collected and adapted many tales in his lifetime and made contributions to the field of fairy tale studies. This is one of the most popular of his collections. Early variations of well-known tales are included such as Cinderella, Three Little Pigs, Three Bears, and Tom Tit Tot. Along with the classics there are lesser-known tales full of suspense, action, ghosts, magic, wicked stepmothers, love lost, imps, and fairies. With some of these tales you can't be sure there will be a happy-ever-after ending.
