(Provided by Richard J. to SurLaLune. Richard sent these to me in December 2003 in a quest to identify the book in his family library which was missing the first 11 pages of text and cover. Hence we do not know the title of the book nor the author. The publication information was still present, but has not been sufficient to identify the book through several years of searching now. The book is 120 pages long with 3 tales in it: The History of jack the Giant Killer, Prince Hyacinth and Dear Little Princess, and Beauty and the Beast. Height: 8 1/2 inches Width : 6 Inches)
