Features: This book collects the works of three fairy tale masters: Hoff, Wilde, and Be. Hoff, in his fairy tales, portrays the deceit, cruelty, brutality, jealousy, vulgarity, and greed of exploiting class figures. Wilde mainly wrote adult literary works in his lifetime, but he also wrote nine fairy tales for young readers. Though not numerous in quantity, they are filled with wonderful ideas, beautiful language, and rich imagination, and have been loved by young readers all over the world. Be's fairy tales have had a broad social impact. Some characters and content in his fairy tales have become common nouns or allusions, such as "Cinderella," "Little Red Riding Hood," and "Thumbelina," and are often quoted by later generations.
