My Dear Little Peggy: Many, many, many years ago I wrote a book for your Mummey when she was my little May telling the fairy tales which the little boys and girls of England used to hear from their mvimmeys, who had heard them from their mummeys years and years and years before. My friend Mr. Batten made such pretty pictures for it but of course you know the book it hasT om, Tit, Tot and The little old woman that went to market, and all those tales you like. Now I have been making a fairy-tale book for your own self, and here it is. This time I have told again the fairy tales that all the mummeys of Europe have been telling their little Peggys, Oh for ever so many years! They must have liked them because they have spread from Germany toR ussia, from Italy to France, from Holland to Scotland, and fromE ngland toN orway, and from every country in Europe that you will read about in your geography to every other one. Mr.
