Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

The purpose of this volume is to furnish our younger readers of the present generation with a fresh supply of stories—half legend, half fairy-tale—of a kind with which the children of an earlier time were more familiar. Herein you will find 19 illustrated stories from the Rhineland and old Roumania. Stories like: The Jipi The Serpent-Isle Vîrful Cu Dor Furnica The Caraiman The Stags’ Valley The Witch’s Stronghold Piatra Arsa (“The Burnt Rock”) Rîul Doamnei (“The River Of The Princess”) The Cave Of Jalomitza The Nixies’ Cleft The Flying Castle The Silver Nail A Doubting Lover A Legend Of Walpurgis-Night Seekers After Gold The Maiden’s Rock The Water-Snake (Parts I And II) The Little Glass-Man The first ten of these stories are taken from the German of Carmen Sylva, who has kindly given the translator her special permission to add them to the following collection of legends. Many of them are associated with the mountains which surround her home among the pine-woods of Sinaia (Prahova County, Romania); others belong to the districts traversed by the Pelesch (Peleș) river (a tributary of the Prahova River), the merry stream that dashes through the ravine at the foot of her garden, “whispering all sorts of wonders and secrets to those who have ears to hear.” The remaining tales in the volume are collected from different parts of Germany. “The Little Glass-man,” is a legend of the Black Forest, the other stories are all compiled from, or founded upon, legends to be met with in various German collections. So, we invite you to download and read these weird tales from Central and Eastern Europe. Tales which will entertain you for hours. 10% of the net income from the sale of this book will be donated to charities. ========== KEYWORDS/TAGS: Rhineland, Germany, Roumania, HM the Queen, : fairy tales, folklore, myths, legends, children’s stories, children’s stories, bygone era, fairydom, fairy land, classic stories, children’s bedtime stories, happy place, happiness, Jipi, Serpent-Isle, Vîrful Cu Dor, Furnica, Caraiman, Stags Valley, Witchs Stronghold, Piatra Arsa, Burnt Rock, Rîul Doamnei, River Of The Princess, Cave, Jalomitza, Nixies Cleft, Flying Castle, Silver Nail, Doubting Lover, Legend, Walpurgis Night, Seekers After Gold, Maiden’s Rock, Water, Snake, Little, Glass Man, Sinaia, Prahova, Pelesch, river, mountains, București, Transylvania, Wallachia, Braşov, Bucharest, Bucegi Mountains

In the evenings, her father regales her with old folktales of the Jade Dragon and the Old Man on the Moon, who knows the answers to all of life's questions. Inspired by these stories, Minli sets off on an extraordinary journey to find the Old Man on the Moon to ask him how she can change her family's fortune.
