ADVENTURE: Rare & Magical

Miss Fenner is unfailingly successful in her selection of stories children like, and her very individual approach is one of the reasons. Here's a new slant on choice, in focus on heroes who overcome handicaps with the help of magic. A collection of old standbys- and some less familiar ones:- the simple hero who outwits his clever brothers; the tailor who slays the giant; Rory and the Robber; the Calabash Man and numerous others.
