Today we read Stories For Children, together with the eldest mini-monsters. These stories are actually Fairy Tales, written by Oscar Wilde. He was an Irish author who wrote plays, novels, poetry and fairy tales.
Although Oscar Wilde lived in the 19th century, his plays are world famous and still performed. These stories are not actually written for children but for adults with a childish nature. Which does not mean that they cannot be read with or by older children.
The stories of Oscar Wilde are beautiful and the brilliant illustrations by P.J. Lunch match them perfectly. Special stories told by a special person. The Happy Prince in the video on the top of the page is read by Stephen Fry, who is an Oscar Wilde fan himself.
