The Yellow Fairy Book is a superb number of tales from all over the place the world. There are such familiar old favorites as the “Story of the Emperor’s New Clothes,” “The Tinder-box,” “Tips on how to Tell a True Princess,” and “The Nightingale.” There are less familiar tales by Madame d’Aulnoy and from the collections of Andersen and Grimm. Many tales come from Hungary, Poland, and Russia, and there are German, French, and English stories, too. There are traditional tales of the American Indians, and three others come from Iceland.
All in all, this collection accommodates 48 stories, all narrated within the clear, full of life prose for which Lang was once famous. Not only are Lang’s in most cases conceded to be the most productive English versions of standard stories, his collections are the richest and widest in range.
