From the day they were first printed, the Lang fairy tale books of many colors have entertained thousands of youngsters, as they have also brought pleasure to parents who have read these classics to their children.The Orange Fairy Book delves into the oral traditions of Rhodesia, Uganda, and Native Americans; the traditions of the Punjab and of Jutland; and such European sources as Hans Christian Andersen (The Ugly Duckling) and Madame dAulnoy (The White Doe) for its 33 stories. The events are favorites with children the world over.All the tales are narrated in clear, lively prose.
