3 Novels and 7 Novellas/Short Stories in One Volume

This almost 600 page volume contains all of the fairy tales of George Macdonald written especially for children and young people. Each of these stories is presented in its complete and unabridged form. Macdonald dedicated much of his time and literary genius to the composition of quality books for children, and his work had a major impact on later writers including Lewis Carol, G.K. Chesterton, C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien, and countless others. Macdonald observed of his own writing that: “I write, not for children, but for the child-like, whether they be of five, or fifty, or seventy-five.”

Included in this volume are three book-length novels and seven short stories:

The Princess and the Goblin
The Princess and Curdie
At the Back of the North Wind
The Light Princess
The Giant’s Heart
Cross Purposes

The Shadows
