Dealings with the Fairies

(1867)
A collection of stories by

 
 
MacDonald's famous collection of original fairy tales for children. This volume includes five tales involving fairies: "The Light Princess," "The Giant's Heart," "The Shadows," "Cross Purposes" and "The Golden Key."

His work for children was quite unlike anyone else's until the time of Tolkien. The element that marks them is the fantasy of dream time and half-remembered things, which somehow stays close to truth.
