The Fairy Ring

Notes

"A new edition of a classic collection, including tales from fifteen lands." --front jacket, bottom banner (viewed at Amazon and ABEbooks) --{{OCLC|317692264}}, presumably from the title page below the co-editor credits

"Here is a beautiful new edition of a well-loved collection of folk and fairy tales from many countries, reselected for children today by Ethna Sheehan, a specialist in folklore and storytelling. Stories from Scandinavia, England, France, Spain, Ireland, Germany, Russia, and India have been retained from the original collection; now, in addition, Italy, Portugal, Arabia, Japan, China, and the American Indian are represented in tales chosen from Miss Wiggin's other popular books in the 'Library of Fairy Literature'. The result is the best of Kate Douglas Wiggin in one handsome volume, redesigned and illustrated in full color and black-and-white by Warren Chappell." --quoted by a dealer at ABEbooks bi=17817738161 (2019-10-18)
