American Fairy Tales by L Frank Baum
FreeAmerican Fairy Tales is the title of a collection of
twelve fantasy stories by L. Frank Baum
The twelve stories were published in this order in the first edition.
"The Box of Robbers."
"The Glass Dog."
"The Queen of Quok."
"The Girl Who Owned a Bear."
"The Enchanted Types."
"The Laughing Hippopotamus."
"The Magic Bon Bons."
"The Capture of Father Time."
"The Wonderful Pump."
"The Dummy That Lived." M
"The King of the Polar Bears."
"The Mandarin and the Butterfly."
The stories, as critics have noted, lack the high-fantasy aspect of
the best of Baum's work, in Oz or out. With ironic or nonsensical
morals attached to their ends, their tone is more satirical, glib,
and tongue-in-cheek than is usual in children's stories;
the serialization in newspapers for adult readers was appropriate
for the materials. "The Magic Bon Bons" was the most popular of the tales,
judging by number of reprints.
