Hope and Heroes: The Tales of Nathaniel Hawthorne - Paperback

by Nathaniel Hawthorne (Author), Anne E. White (Author)

In the 1850's, Nathaniel Hawthorne created children's versions of twelve classical myths (after having told them many times to his own family). He said, "They are done up in excellent style, purified from all moral stains, re-created as good as new, or better... I never did anything else so well as these old baby stories." This edition of A Wonder Book and Tanglewood Tales has been edited and annotated especially for the use of students following the AmblesideOnline Curriculum.
