What one reviewer at amazon said about Lilac Fairy Book:
The Andrew Lang collections are well worth it. I read them when I was a child (bless that library) and when I saw them for sale I couldn't resist. The stories have retained their freshness and it is interesting to see similar themes dealt with by different cultures.
These would be great for parents reading to their children or for children looking for something interesting and fun to read.
Definitely worth it!
