Mischievous yet kindhearted, Brownies are tiny sprites that roam the countryside while mortals sleep. Making their debut in 1883, the fanciful folk were inspired by Scottish folktales but reflected the sensibilities of 19th-century American children. This first and best of the Brownie books features 24 short verse tales and 260 whimsical illustrations.
