Old-Fashioned Fairy Tales , by Juliana Horatia Gatty Ewing (1841 - 1885)

This project can now be found in our catalog at https://librivox.org/old-fashioned-fairy-tales-version-2-by-juliana-horatia-gatty-ewing/
The title may lead you to think that these are retellings of old familiar fairy tales. Not so at all. These are completely new stories but written in conformity with the way fairy tales are traditionally written and told. You will find ghosts and goblins; knaves and knights; widows and witches in them. But they all carry the sense of wonder and awe at the world that fairy tales have given us for ages past. (Summary by Phil Chenevert)
Source text (please read only from this text!): https://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/15592

Deadline: Please submit your recording within 2 months of placing your claim. If you cannot complete the recording within this time, please post in the thread to relinquish your claim or to ask the BC for an extension. If your recording is not completed by the deadline, your claim may be reassigned at the BC's discretion.

Claiming sections: Look in the Magic Window below for the list of available sections. Post a reply in this thread asking for the section you would like to record.
