Summary | "The Book of Fables and Folk Stories" by Horace Elisha Scudder is a collection of classic fables and folk tales written during the late 19th century. The book features well-known stories such as "Little Red Riding Hood," "The Goose That Laid Golden Eggs," and "Cinderella," and is designed to entertain and impart moral lessons to young readers. At the start of this compilation, readers are introduced to several beloved fables, beginning with "Little Red Riding Hood," who embarks on a journey to visit her grandmother but encounters a cunning wolf along the way. This is followed by the moral tale of "The Goose That Laid Golden Eggs," teaching the dangers of greed. Other stories like "The Lion and the Mouse" illustrate themes of kindness and reciprocity, establishing a foundation for moral instruction. The opening portion presents a rich variety of tales, each actively engaging the reader while highlighting ethical lessons through charming narratives and characters.
