About this listen

 The enchanting world of old English folklore is fading away, as the simplicity and charm that once preserved our timeless tales and beliefs are increasingly lost to modernity. In England, this cultural shift seems to be happening faster than anywhere else. As we surrender to relentless “progress” and the challenges of contemporary life, the poetic essence of our heritage is at risk of being erased. In curating this collection, I have sought to present some of the finest examples of our folklore. For the nursery tales, I took special care to preserve their original form, drawing from the earliest editions available. While I made minimal adjustments to maintain their integrity, some edits were necessary. - Summary by Charles John TibbitsCopyright Legends & Fairy Tales Literature & Fiction World
