A treasury of unique books, including some wonderful tales such as: [ The young man who tricks a dragon into a box to become a king; [ An Ogre who saves a beautiful girl from a witch; [ A boy brave enough to marry a fearsome, terrible troll's daughter; [ A goat-faced girl, raised by a fairy, disguised as a lizard, yet destined to marry a king; [ An orchestra of a donkey, a greyhound, a cat and a cockerel and their singing adventure; [ The King who had Goat's ears; [ The girl who was born from an egg and turned into a beautiful princess; [ The story of the headless dwarfs.
