5.0 out of 5 stars Multicultural before it was a buzzword, April 6, 2000
By Heidi Anne Heiner (SurLaLune Fairy Tales.com) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)      
Lang was one of the first editors to collect multicultural fairy tales into one volume for readers. The Orange Fairy Book offers tales from many cultures. Included tales are The Girl-Fish, How Isuro the Rabbit Tricked Gudu, How the Stalos Were Tricked, The Adventures of a Jackal, Story of the King Who Would See Paradise, and many others. I have enjoyed the colored fairy books for years. Don't miss the great illustrations either.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good To Read With A Cup Of Tea, February 5, 2003
By A Customer
I find this book to be one of the best fairy tale books I've ever read. The illustrations are simply beautiful! The different plots and twists for each tale are interesting.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Orange Fairy Book, October 23, 2007
Bought this with other books in the same series. I will eventually have the whole collection that I plan to display in my dining room. I hope that my grand-children will find the same joy and escape that I did as a child through this series of books.

I totally loved this collection! Lang really gathered a wide spectrum of folklore for this, even to the point of slight classic Victorian racism. Read more
