  Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and narrated by Matthew Schmitz. 
  The Red Fairy Book, compiled by Andrew Lang and first published in 1890, is a richly imaginative collection of classic fairy tales drawn from a wide array of cultural traditions, including Russian, Norse, French, and German folklore. Featuring stories such as “The Twelve Dancing Princesses,” “The Death of Koschei the Deathless,” and “The Master Thief,” the book weaves a tapestry of magical quests, enchanted creatures, clever tricksters, and timeless moral lessons. Each tale is steeped in symbolic resonance—princes undergo trials, maidens are tested, and villains often meet poetic justice—capturing the essence of the mythic imagination. Imbued with the mystique of oral tradition, The Red Fairy Book stands as one of the most enduring volumes in Lang’s influential series, offering readers a glimpse into the enchanted realms of old-world wonder.

  Jerome K Jerome - Six of the...

  Six has always been a number we group things around – Six of the best, six of one half a dozen of another, six feet under, six pack, six degrees of separation and a sixth sense are but a few of the ways we use this number. 
   
  Such is its popularity that we thought it is also a very good way of challenging and investigating an author’s work to give width, brevity, humour and depth across six of their very best. 
   
  In this series we gather together authors whose short stories both rivet the attention and inspire the imagination to visit their gems in a series of six, to roam across an author’s legacy in a few short hours and gain a greater understanding of their writing and, of course, to be lavishly entertained by their ideas, their narrative and their way with words. 
   
  These stories can be surprising and sometimes at a tangent to what we expected, but each is fully formed and a marvellous adventure into the world and words of a literary master.

  A Little Princess is a children's novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett, first published as a book in 1905. It is an expanded version of the short story "Sara Crewe: or, What Happened at Miss Minchin's", which was serialized in St. Nicholas Magazine from December 1887, and published in book form in 1888. According to Burnett, after she composed the 1902 play A Little Un-fairy Princess based on that story, her publisher asked that she expand the story as a novel with "the things and people that had been left out before".
