I received a copy of The Green Fairy Book by Andrew LangThe book contains short classic fairy tales and I know my family will enjoy this book for many years in our home. I was thrilled to learn my mother-in-law has a copy of the original published in 1909. I borrowed her book to compare the two.

The similarities were remarkable. The Folio Society artists do an amazing job designing each title page and illustration in the books.

 The stories are identical in text and I enjoyed turning the pages of both books.

The bright and modern illustrations in The Folio Society copy have entertained my daughter but continue to have a very classic tone matching the original.

Although my daughter is just four years old, she loves to read with me. This year I plan to introduce our first chapter book. I remember my mom sitting on the edge of my bed every night reading Charlotte’s Web when I was a child. I would love to purchase a copy from The Folio Society to create a memory my daughter will also cherish.
