Beauty
Author:
Anna Sewell, Lisa R. Church
Illustrated by Lucy Corvino
Children's Books/Ages 9/12 Fiction
Description:
Following Sterling's spectacularly successful
launch of its children's classic novels
(240,000 books in print to date), comes
a dazzling new series: " Classic
Starts." The stories are abridged;
the quality is complete. "Classic
Starts" treats the world's beloved
tales (and children) with the respect
they deserve--all at an incomparable price.
"Black Beauty "is the classic
horse story, a beautiful and touching
tale told by the title character himself.
Set in Victorian London, it follows Beauty's
life and changing fortunes as he moves
from owner to owner. As the horse encounters
new experiences and new friends who reveal
their own histories, the story quietly
paints a fascinating portrait of how animals
were treated during that era.

Blue
Beard
Description:
Bluebeard was a wealthy aristocrat, feared
because of his "frightfully ugly"
blue beard. He had been married three
times, but no one knew what had become
of his wives. He was therefore avoided
by the local girls. When Bluebeard visited
one of his neighbours and asked to marry
one of her daughters, they were terrified,
and each tried to pass him on to the other.
Eventually he persuaded the younger daughter
to marry him, and after the ceremony she
went to live with him in his château.
Very
shortly after, however, Bluebeard announced
that he had to leave the country for a
while; he gave over all the keys of the
chateau to his new wife, including the
key to one small room that she was forbidden
to enter. He then went away and left the
house in her hands. Almost immediately
she was overcome with the desire to see
what the forbidden room held, and finally
her visiting sister convinced her to satisfy
her curiosity and open the room.
However,
the wife immediately discovered the room's
horrible secret: Its floor reeked of blood,
and the dead bodies of her husband's former
wives hung on the walls. Horrified, she
locked the door, but blood had come onto
the key which would not wash off. Bluebeard
returned unexpectedly and immediately
knew what his wife had done. In a blind
rage he threatened to behead her on the
spot, and so she locked herself in the
highest tower with her sister. While Bluebeard,
sword in hand, tried to break down the
door, the sisters waited for their two
brothers to arrive. At the last moment,
as Bluebeard was about to deliver the
fatal blow, the brothers broke into the
castle, and as he attempted to flee, they
killed him.
He
left no heirs but his wife, who inherited
all his great fortune. She used part of
it for a dowry to marry her sister to
the one that loved her, another part for
her brothers' captains commissions, and
the rest to marry a worthy gentleman who
made her forget her ill treatment by Bluebeard.

Description:
A wonderful change came over Mike Flynn.
Until he met Rodney he seemed quite destitute
of ambition. The ragged and dirty suit
which he wore as bootblack were the best
he had. His face and hands generally bore
the marks of his business, and as long
as he made enough to buy three meals a
day, two taken at the Lodging House, with
something over for lodging, and an occasional
visit to a cheap theater, he was satisfied.

Author:
Charles Dickens
Language:
English
Description:
Charles Dickens, who was born in 1812,
is considered one of the greatest of English
novelists. Certainly he is the most popular.
Not only did he have an important place
in nineteenth-century literature, but
he was also an outspoken and influential
critic of society. He wrote fifteen novels
as well as a number of stories and Christmas
books. In lots of these children were
important characters.
In his day, no one understood children
better than Dickens, and he was the first
writer to describe what children thought
and felt and to capture the way they spoke.
And he was not afraid to write about the
hard and sad lives that many children
led.
In the stories in this book, which have
been retold by Charles Dickens's granddaughter,
Mary Angela Dickens, you will meet some
of the children who appear in the works
of Charles Dickens.
There is Oliver Twist, who had many misadventures
after he escaped from the terrible workhouse
where he was born, and David Copperfield,
the hero of Dickens's most popular novel,
much of which records his own experiences.
Little Paul Dombey is the young son of
Dombey and Son, and Amy is the heroine
of Little Dorrit.
On these pages, you'll also make the acquaintance
of Tiny Tim, from A Christmas Carol, the
fat boy from The Pickwick Papers, Jenny
Wren from Our Mutual Friend, and the blind
little toymaker from The Cricket on the
Hearth, and Little Nell and the marchioness
from The Old Curiosity Shop.
Howard Copping's wonderful paintings and
drawings bring Dickens's fascinating characters,
both young and old, to life.

Later my father married another woman
who let me see the difference between
my own mother and a step-mother. She did
not seem to love me and turned my father
against me. Then my father sent me to
school to a Welshman, Mr. Rico, who kept
the free school in the town of Lancaster.
He was exceedingly cruel and dealt unjustly
with me. This discouraged me so about
school and lessons that I remember wishing
often times that I might take care of
pigs.

Edithas
Burglar
Author:
Frances Hodgson Burnett
Illustrated by Henry Sandham
Children's Books/Ages 9/12 Fiction
Description:
1888. Burnett, began as a novelist, but
she is now best remembered for her children's
books including The Secret Garden and
Sara Crewe (which was later rewritten
to become The Little Princess). Her romance
novels were also quite popular during
her lifetime. The story begins: I will
begin by saying that Editha was always
rather a queer little girl, and not much
like other children. She was not a strong,
healthy little girl, and had never been
able to run about and play; and, as she
had no sisters, or brothers, or companions
of her own size, she was rather old-fashioned,
as her aunts used to call it. She had
always been very fond of books, and had
learned to read when she was such a tiny
child, that I should almost be afraid
to say how tiny she was when she read
her first volume through. Her papa wrote
books himself, and was also the editor
of a newspaper; and, as he had a large
library, Editha perhaps read more than
was quite good for her. She lived in Long;
and, as her mamma was very young and pretty,
and went out a great deal, and her papa
was so busy, and her governess only came
in the morning, she was left to herself
a good many hours in the day, and when
she was left to herself, she spent the
greater part of her time in the library
reading her papa's big books, and even
his newspapers.

be a less clever woman than I am, and

Aesop's Fables have become a blanket term
for collections of brief fables, usually
involving personified animals. The fables
remain a popular choice for moral education
of children today. Many stories included
in Aesop's Fables, such as The Fox and the
Grapes (from which the idiom "sour

Description:
Hansel and Gretel, Rumpelstiltskin, and
Snow White are among the jewels we owe
to the German brothers Grimm, who began
in the first decade of the 19th century
to seek out and listen to village storytellers.
The best-loved of the tales they discovered
are now brought together with the marvelous
pictures that in 1900 first established
the reputation of one of the greatest
children's illustrators of all time, Arthur
Rackham.

Sociology
Description: To all these, and more, whom
there is no room to mention, we must add
other dwellers in Fairyland--forms, in
one shape or other, of the great Sun-myths
of the ancient Aryan race--such as Arthur
and the Knights of the Round Table and
Vivien and Merlin, and Queen Morgan le
hay, and Ogier the Dane, and the story
of Roland, and the Great Norse poems which
tell of Sigurd, and Brynhilt, and Gudrun,
and the Niblung folk. And to these, again,
there are to be added many of the heroes
and heroines who figure in the Thousand-and-one
Nights--such, for example, as Aladdin,
and Sindbad, and Ali Baba, and the Forty
Thieves, and the Enchanted Horse, and
the Fairy Peri Banou.

far as old Venice / And when they asked
How / Do you like it? Bow wow! / Said
the pug It'a too wet here for tennis!"
A great turn of the last century picture
book.

Findelkind
Author:
Ouida
Fiction / General
Description:
When spring came, Findelkind sat by the
edge of the bright pure water among the
flowering grasses, and felt his heart
heavy. Findelkind of Arlberg who was in
heaven now must look down, he fancied,
and think him so stupid and so selfish,
sitting there. The first Findelkind, a
few centuries before, had trotted down
on his bare feet from his mountain pass,
and taken his little crook, and gone out
boldly over all the land on his pilgrimage.

Five
Children and It
Author:
Edith Nesbit
Children's Books/Ages 9/12 Fiction
Description:
Be careful what you ask for. You may get
it! That's the message author Edith Nesbit
clearly imparts in this delightful tale
of five youngsters who discover a bizarre
sand creature that grants wishes. There's
a catch, of course: the wishes come undone
at sunset; and worse yet, things often
get out of hand because not much thought
is put into what people really want. An
enchanting tale that's sure to delight
today's young readers as much as it did
generations ago.

Folk-Lore
and Fable
Author:
Aesop
Description:
1909. Many tales have been collected and
they are represented in the present volume
by the household tales preserved by Grimm.
Far earlier written down, but less primitive
in kind, are the Aesopic Fables. Still
more recent, both in kind and in date,
are the Wonder stories of modern manufacture
represented here by the tales of Hans
Christian Andersen. Andersen had a marvelous
knack of entertaining children by repeating
old folk tales of the type collected by
Grimm; and his success in this led him
on to attempt inventing new ones.

Folle-Farine
Author:
Ouida
Fiction / General
Description:
The old serving woman, terrified in so
far as her dull brutish nature could be
roused to fear, did what she knew, what
she dared. She raised the little wounded
naked creature, and carried her to her
own pallet bed; restored her to consciousness
by such rude means as she had knowledge
of, and staunched the flow of blood.
