A collection of illustrated fairy stories from Louisa May Alcott―the author who brought us Little Women.
Originally published in 1854, this collection of fables was inspired by Louisa's time spent in the woods around Walden Pond―a spot endearingly named Fairyland by Walden's own Henry David Thoreau. Young Louisa collected these fairy fables into a volume dedicated to her friend Ellen Emerson, the daughter of Ralph Waldo Emerson. This volume―published under the title, Flower Fables―was Louisa's first published book. Published to commemorate the 150th anniversary of its first publication, this elegant hardback edition is a perfect gift for any aged reader.
