The book: Scarce and very nice book on FAIRIES

"Whispers from Fairyland new and original fairy tales by Charles Roper illustrated by Tom Charman The young people will find Mr Roper a most entertaining companion his Whispers from Fairyland show him to be familiar with the fairy folk in an unusually intimate manner and such intimacy makes him particularly well able to tell tales concerning the doings of the little people In an introductory chapter Mr Roper takes his young readers into his confidence and relates all that he knows about fairies and their ways then he tells eleven stories with such attractive titles as The Enchanted Giant The Musical Tailor Hum Dum Twiddle Uee Totty Nipkin the Dwarf and Wrong Side Up The very names are such as to awaken the interest of all lovers of fairy land that is to say of every young child into whose hands the bright little book falls Nor are the child's anticipations likely to be disappointed Mr Roper has largely based his fairy tales on actual folk stories gathered in different parts of the country and this fact adds a fresh value to a particularly entertaining collection
