The Provensens have added a generous quota of their colorful and good-naturedly rustic looking drawings to this compilation of predominantly familiar literary fairy tales. Led by favorites such as Wilde's ""Happy Prince"" and Arthur Rackham's ""The Beauty and the Beast,"" the selections extend to samples of Henry Beston, Seumas MacManus, and Ruth Manning-Sanders. A handsome new package, but the contents may be old hat to most collections.
