LITTLE FAIRIES

LITTLE FAIRIES.
In the 1880's there were released a series of fairy tale collections titled for fairies. The Blue Fairy Book being the most famous. Several of the stories included in this anthology were being published in English for the first time, including the stories collected by the Brothers Grimm.

More paper doll fashions are coming up next week!
