Excerpt from Stories From a Wonder-Book for Girls and Boys The stories that you are to read in this book are some of the oldest and most beautiful in the world. Long, long ago they were told by Greek mothers to their children, and even in those days they were old. When they were first imagined nobody can tell, nor know for certain what they first meant. Some learned men in our own times have fancied that they were not stories about real people that lived in the world, but about sun and stars, about sky and clouds and wind and sea, about day and night and the passing seasons. They have thought that as men and women in the childhood of the world watched the wonderful changes that pass over the face of sky and land and sea, they explained those changes to themselves as scenes in the lives of mysterious beings, gods in Shape like unto men, but in power infinitely greater. Others, again, have held that Hercules and Bellerophon were real heroes, and Midas a real king, and that after their death the fame of their valour and riches grew into the marvellous legends that you will read here.

Excerpt from Wonder Stories: The Best Myths for Boys and Girls Long ago, when our earth was more than two thousand years younger, there was a wonderful place called Mount Olympus at the top of the world that the ancients could see quite clearly with the eyes of hope and faith. It did not matter that the Greek and Roman people had never set foot on this mountain in the clouds. They knew it in story and reverenced the gods and goddesses who inhabited it.

Excerpt from A Wonder Book In performing this pleasant task, for it has been really a task fit for hot weather, and one of the most agreeable, of a literary kind, which he ever undertook, the author has not always thought it necessary to write downward, in order to meet the comprehension of children. He has generally suffered the theme to soar, whenever such was its tendency, and when he himself was buoyant enough to follow without an effort. Chil dren possess an unestimated sensibility to what ever is deep or high, in imagination or feeling, so long as it is simple likewise. It is only the arti ficial and the complex that bewilder them.

Excerpt from On the Way There: A Wonder Tale for Boys and Girls, Both Little and "Grown Tall" The Dream balanced himself on the foot board and cracked his heels together saucily.

Six legends of Greek mythology, retold for children by Nathaniel Hawthorne. Included are The Gorgon's Head, The Golden Touch, The Paradise of Children, The Three Golden Apples, The Miraculous Pitcher, and The Chimaera. In 1838, Hawthorne suggested to Henry Wadsworth Longfellow that they collaborate on a story for children based on the legend of the Pandora's Box, but this never materialized. He wrote A Wonder Book between April and July 1851, adapting six legends most freely from Charles Anton's A Classical Dictionary (1842). He set out deliberately to "modernize" the stories, freeing them from what he called "cold moonshine" and using a romantic, readable style that was criticized by adults but proved universally popular with children.
