This is a superb book to have on the shelf in the primary and lower middle classroom. As 'Goodnight Stories' it is also a good choice for family reading. Authors range across a century from Tolstoy to Lavinia Derwent, from Oscar Wilde to Jill Tomlinson. The stories are of fantasy and fairy tale with the satisfying assurance that good will triumph over evil and all will be well. Each is introduced with a note from the editor so that it makes the perfect selection for dipping into for an occasion. It was much liked by all those children who had the opportunity to try it.
