  • Mother’s Bedtime Stories by Andrew Lang, published in 1889, is the first volume in his famous Fairy Book series. As a Scottish folklorist, poet, and historian, Lang compiled and edited 37 timeless fairy tales from around the world, many of which have become beloved classics. The collection includes well-known stories like "Cinderella," "Beauty and the Beast," "Sleeping Beauty," "Rumpelstiltskin," "Little Red Riding Hood," and "The Story of Pretty Goldilocks." While the tales are primarily drawn from European traditions, Lang's work introduced these magical stories to English-speaking audiences, shaping the genre of fairy tales for generations. Lang's Blue Fairy Book played a significant role in making fairy tales popular as children's literature. Even today, the book continues to captivate readers of all ages with its enchanting tales of magic, adventure, and timeless morals.
