This beautiful collection brings together The Selfish Giant, The Happy Prince, The Nightingale and the Rose, The Young King, The Fisherman and His Soul, and The Star Child - timeless stories filled with magic, love and compassion.
In The Selfish Giant a heartless giant banishes all children from his garden, only to discover that it was their laughter that made it beautiful. The Happy Prince follows a decidedly unhappy statue, who, with the help of a devoted little swallow, seeks to ease the suffering of the poor. In The Nightingale and the Rose, a kindly little bird tries to mend the heart of a lovesick student.
The Young King follows a royal heir whose dreams reveal the human cost behind his gilded life. In The Fisherman and His Soul, a young man risks everything to win the heart of a lovely mermaid, while The Star Child describes the rise and fall of a beautiful yet vain boy.
