Gathered here are five tantalizing fairy tales in which a make-believe city and its mystical bells are discovered in "The Bells of Ninst"; a healing flower wins a war with germs in "The Well-O-Will Flower"; three sisters bid on a husband and get a surprise in "The Sisters Three"; an artist finds love and defeats a jealous suitor in "The Deadly Portrait," and a boy learns his history lesson in an unusual way in "The Limner's Key." From cruel kings to pretty and not-so-pretty princesses, curses and spells, mischievous birds and dragons, there's plenty here to provide a field day for the imagination.
