Old Hungarian Fairy Tales

""Old Hungarian Fairy Tales"" is a collection of traditional folk stories and legends from Hungary, as retold by Baroness Emma Orczy. The book includes 17 tales, each with its own unique characters and plot, but all sharing a common thread of magic, adventure, and moral lessons. Some of the stories feature familiar fairy tale elements such as princesses, dragons, and enchanted forests, while others delve into more obscure Hungarian folklore. The tales are written in a simple, accessible style that makes them suitable for readers of all ages. Orczy's retellings are faithful to the original stories, but also infused with her own imaginative touches. ""Old Hungarian Fairy Tales"" is a charming and enchanting book that offers a window into the rich cultural heritage of Hungary.The next day Narcissa got up and dressed, or rather made Forget-me-not dress her as usual; she was not yet tired of all the admiration her beauty always roused whereever she passed, and she still loved as dearly as ever to gaze at her own reflection in the lake, and provoke its inhabitants into songs of praise. On this particular morning she had made herself look lovelier than ever, and she stepped out of her mother's garden, anxiously peering round for the squirrels, who always greeted her approach joyfully, and escorted her to the edge of the lake with many a bow of admiration and envy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
