The Red Fairy Book

Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and narrated by Matthew Schmitz.

The Red Fairy Book, compiled by Andrew Lang and first published in 1890, is a richly imaginative collection of classic fairy tales drawn from a wide array of cultural traditions, including Russian, Norse, French, and German folklore. Featuring stories such as “The Twelve Dancing Princesses,” “The Death of Koschei the Deathless,” and “The Master Thief,” the book weaves a tapestry of magical quests, enchanted creatures, clever tricksters, and timeless moral lessons. Each tale is steeped in symbolic resonance—princes undergo trials, maidens are tested, and villains often meet poetic justice—capturing the essence of the mythic imagination. Imbued with the mystique of oral tradition, The Red Fairy Book stands as one of the most enduring volumes in Lang’s influential series, offering readers a glimpse into the enchanted realms of old-world wonder.
