/Home/Languages/Literature/Genres/Children's Literature/Fables & Fairy Tales Chapter The Happy Prince of The Happy Prince by Oscar Wilde Votes:0 The Happy Prince HIGH above the city, on a tall column, stood the statue of the Happy Prince. He was gilded all over with thin leaves of fine gold, for eyes he had two bright sapphires, and a large red ruby glowed on his sword- hilt. He was very much admired indeed. `He is as beautiful as a weathercock,' remarked one of the Town Councillors who wished to gain a reputation for having artistic tastes; `only not quite so useful,' he added, fearing lest people should think him unpractical, which he really was not. `Why can't you be like the Happy Prince?' asked a sensible mother of her little boy who was crying for the moon. `The Happy Prince never dreams of crying for anything.' `I am glad there is some one in the world who is quite happy,' muttered a disappointed man as he gazed at the wonde Read More Go to Site "A Day" from Hospital Sketches and Camp Fireside Stories Votes:0 "A Day" from Hospital Sketches and Camp Fireside Stories Alcott, Louisa May, 1832-1888 Electronic Text Center , University of Virginia Library All on-line databases About the electronic version "A Day" from Hospital Sketches and Camp Fireside Stories Alcott, Louisa May, 1832-1888 Creation of machine-readable version: Judy Boss Creation of digital images: Catherine Tousignant Conversion to TEI.2-conformant markup: University of Virginia Library Electronic Text Center. ca. 32 kilobytes This version available from the University of Virginia Library.

This collection gathers together artwork from several semesters. Over the years the Web has developed to allow for more action and interactivity. In the earlier versions, the stories are illustrated with still images set in simple HTML pages. More recently, students have been working with Macromedia Flash to develop their stories as animations, some with sound and interactivity.

When she was little everybody admired her, and called her "The little Beauty;" so that, as she grew up, she still went by the name of Beauty, which made her sisters very jealous. The youngest, as she was handsomer, was also better than her sisters. The two eldest had a great deal of pride, because they were rich.

Note: I am really trying to keep this website family safe. However, I am finding it very difficult to find fairy tales to put on this page which are not going to be offensive to someone.

(And I can't read Steven King without getting nightmares). The first one is a F Read More Go to Site Russian Fairy Tales Votes:0 Enjoy the adventures of the mighty knight Ruslan, the beautiful "dead" princess, Ivan Tsarevich, Prince Gvidon and many many others in this collection of Russian fairy tales.
