Old Peter's Russian Tales

By Arthur Ransome

Release : 1916-01-01

Genre : Fiction for Young Adults, Books, Young Adult

Kind : ebook

(0 ratings)
The stories in this book are those that Russian peasants tell their children and each other. In Russia hardly anybody is too old for fairy stories, and I have even heard soldiers on their way to the war talking of very wise and very beautiful princesses as they drank their tea by the side of the road. I think there must be more fairy stories told in Russia than anywhere else in the world. In this book are a few of those I like best. I have taken my own way with them more or less, writing them mostly from memory.
