The Meadow Sprite, and Other Tales of Modern Germany

Gertrude Schottenfels has collected and arranged eleven original tales from Germany in this volume. Ms Schottenfels alternates between stories written by Richard von Volkmann and Rudolf Baumbach, two authors active in the middle of the 19th century. The tales are varied and rather romantic, and can be enjoyed both by children and their parents.
