Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: All the stories about Princes and Princesses in this book are true stories out of old books of history. There are some children who make life difficult by saying, first that stories about fairies are true, and that they like fairies; and next that they do not like true stories about real people, who lived long ago. I am quite ready to grant that there really are such things as fairies, because, though I never saw a fairy, any more than I have seen the little animals which lecturers call molecules and ions, still I have seen people who have seen fairies - truthful people. Now I never knew a lecturer who ventured to say that he had seen an ion or a molecule. It is well known, and written in a true book, that the godmother of Joan of Arc had seen fairies, and nobody can suppose that such a good woman would tell her godchild what was not true - for example, that the squire of the parish was in love with a fairy and used to meet her in the moonlight beneath a beautiful tree. In fact, if we did not believe in fairy stories, who would care to read them? Yet only too many children dislike to read true stories, because the people in them were real, and the things actually happened. Is not this very strange? This book is fully illustrated and annotated with a rare extensive biographical sketch of the author, Andrew Lang, written by Sir Edmund Gosse, CB, a contemporary poet and writer. Contents: Napoleon His Majesty The King Of Rome The Princess Jeanne Hacon The King Mi Reina! Mi Reina! Henriette The Siege Baby The Red Rose The White Rose Richard The Fearless Frederick And Wilhelmine Une Reine Malheureuse The 'Little Queen' Two Little Girls And Their Mother The Troubles Of Queen Elizabeth

The mountain range belongs to Corsica, and under its shadow was born the most wonderful man the world has ever seen--Napoleon.

Book excerpt: A Little Princess is a children's novel written by the English-American novelist Frances Hodgson Burnett. Published in 1905 as an adaptation of Burnett's serialized novel Sara Crewe, it is considered a classic of English-language children's literature. The novel tells the story of a young girl named Sara Crewe, who moves from India to England to attend boarding school. When her beloved father dies and she is seemingly left with nothing, Sara goes through a period of intense mistreatment and deprivation at the hands of her schoolmistress. However, she survives on the strength of her imagination, especially through her conviction that she can behave like a princess even in dire circumstances. Eventually, Sara is rediscovered and has her fortune restored to her. The novel explores themes of imagination, friendship, and the treatment of children. It also offers insight into mainstream attitudes towards class, race, and colonialism in turn-of-the-century Britain.
