Sorting out some books today, I re-discovered my Granny’s prize book, presented to her in 1902. The stories are beautifully told and I loved them as a child. The author’s name doesn’t appear on the front, only on the spine. The illustrator, Gordon Browne, is credited on the front cover. I do like this Bottom and the fairies.
The Shakespeare Storybook, one hundred and thirteen years old!
