Sinopse

In "The Book of Elves and Fairies for Story-Telling and Reading Aloud and for the Children's Own Reading," Frances Jenkins Olcott offers a whimsical collection of enchanting tales that delve into the realms of the mythical and magical. Written in a lyrical style that seamlessly combines prose and poetry, the book is rich with vibrant imagery and folkloric themes, drawing upon the deep well of fairy lore. Olcott'Äôs work situates itself within the tradition of children's literature in the early 20th century, a time when storytelling was seen as a vital means of imparting morals and stimulating the imagination of young readers. Frances Jenkins Olcott, an eminent American children's author and librarian, was a key figure in promoting literature that nurtured the youthful spirit. Her passion for folklore and storytelling was fueled by her experiences in libraries and her extensive reading in cultural traditions around the world. This profound interest likely inspired her to curate a selection of tales that not only entertain but also educate children about the rich tapestry of myth and morality woven through literature. This book is a must-read for parents, educators, and young readers alike. Olcott's captivating narratives encourage creativity, wonder, and engagement with literature, making it an invaluable tool for both story-telling sessions and independent reading pursuits. Engage with the charm of elves and fairies and rediscover the joy of reading.

Robinson Crusoe is an English adventure novel by Daniel Defoe, first published on 25 April 1719. Written with a combination of epistolary, confessional, and didactic forms, the book follows the title character (born Robinson Kreutznaer) after he is cast away and spends 28 years on a remote tropical desert island near the coasts of Venezuela and Trinidad, encountering cannibals, captives, and mutineers before being rescued. The story has been thought to be based on the life of Alexander Selkirk,[2] a Scottish castaway who lived for four years on a Pacific island called "Más a Tierra" (now part of Chile) which was renamed Robinson Crusoe Island in 1966. Pedro Serrano is another real-life castaway whose story might have inspired the novel.

The first edition credited the work's protagonist Robinson Crusoe as its author, leading many readers to believe he was a real person and that the book was a non-fiction travelogue. Despite its simple narrative style, Robinson Crusoe was well received in the literary world and is often credited as marking the beginning of realistic fiction as a literary genre. Some allege it is a contender for the first English novel.
