THE FIRST BOOK OF FAIRY TALES – Raising funds for Children in Need 
26 illustrated stories and poems

Wsparcie
This book has especially been republished to raise funds for the BBC’s Children in Need appeals.

This book is compiled of 26 old, rare and forgotten Fairy Tales and stories taken from books in Abela Publishing’s series “
Folk-Lore, Fairytales, Myths and Legends from Around the World” – a series created to raise funds for charities and underprivileged individuals. Keeping true to our vision, the intent behind this compendium is to raise funds for BBC’s
Children in Need Appeal .

  • Tom Tit Tot – English

The words 'Fairy Tales’ must be taken to include tales in which something 'fairy’, something extraordinary occurs — fairies, giants, dwarfs, speaking animals. Mostly it is the comical stupidity of some of the actors, as is so common in moral tales.



In buying this book you will be giving in more than one way. Once to the Children in Need appeal and again, to yourself, as you read and enjoy stories not read for many a year. But should you perchance happen to read these stories to your children, nieces and nephews or grand-children, you will be giving yet again. 10% of the profit from the sale of this book will be donated to the appeal.



So take some time out and travel back to a period before television, or even radio for that matter, when families would gather around a crackling and spitting hearth and granddad or grandma  or an uncle or aunt would delight and captivate their audience with stories passed on to them from their mothers, fathers and grandparents.
