Beschreibung

Where is the harm? The truth is that the Folk Lore Societymade up of the most clever, learned, and beautiful men and women of the countryis fond of studying the history and geography of Fairy Land. This is contained in very old tales, such as country people tell, and savages:'Little Sioux and little Crow, Little frosty Eskimo.'These people are thought to know most about fairyland and its inhabitants. But, in the Yellow Fairy Book, and the rest, are many tales by persons who are neither savages nor rustics, such as Madame D'Aulnoy and Herr Hans Christian Andersen. The Folk Lore Society, or its president, say that their tales are not so true as the rest, and should not be published with the rest. But we say that all the stories which are pleasant to read are quite true enough for us; so here they are, with pictures by Mr. Ford, and we do not think that either the pictures or the stories are likely to mislead children.

    Sing a song o' sixpence, a handful of rye, 
    Four-and-twenty blackbirds baked in a pie; 
    When the pie was opened the birds began to sing, 
    Wasn't that a dainty dish to set before the King? 
    So, what does this strange old nursery song mean? Or is it just nonsense?  If you have never heard the legend of Gilligren and the King's pie you will scarcely understand the above verse; so let Frank Baum, the man who wrote the Wizard of OZ, tell you the whole story, and then you will be able to better appreciate the rhyme. 
    Gilligren was an orphan, and lived with an uncle and aunt who were very unkind to him. They cuffed him and scolded him upon the slightest provocation, and made his life very miserable indeed. Gilligren never rebelled against this treatment, but bore their cruelty silently and with patience, although often he longed to leave them and seek a home amongst kinder people.
