Summary

Mischievous yet kindhearted, Palmer Cox's Brownies are tiny sprites that roam the countryside while mortals sleep. Making their debut in 1883, the fanciful folk were inspired by Scottish folktales but reflected the sensibilities of 19th-century American children. This is the first and best of the Brownie books, featuring 24 short verse tales and more than 260 illustrations.
