| Summary | "Fairy Tales, Volume 1 (of 2)" by Marion Florence Lansing and Charles Copeland is a collection of classic fairy tales compiled and edited for young readers, likely written in the late 19th century. This anthology consists mostly of Märchen, or nursery tales, featuring fantastical elements such as talking animals, magical beings, and heroic endeavors, while emphasizing moral lessons and enchanting storytelling. The collection includes well-known tales such as "Cinderella," "Rapunzel," and "Beauty and the Beast," aiming to capture the imagination of children and adults alike. The opening of this enchanting collection introduces the reader to the format and themes of the stories within. It provides insights into the nature of fairy tales, emphasizing their fantastical elements and the happy outcomes typically found in these narratives. The first tale recounted is "Rumpelstiltskin," where a poor miller's daughter is thrust into a perilous situation when the King orders her to spin straw into gold, only to be saved by a mysterious little man in exchange for her firstborn child. This charming blend of adventure and moral dilemma sets the tone for the other tales, promising adventures filled with magic, wit, and the triumph of virtue over adversity.
