Forgotten Fairy Tales of Unlikely Heroes

A celebration of the idea that with courage and heart, anyone can become a hero.

It is the unlikely heroes in stories that are sometimes the most inspiring of all. Stories about someone small, and seemingly unimportant or overlooked, who ends up being the one to stand tall.

This collection of seven fairy tales, once much loved, now forgotten, breathes new life into old tales: a farm girl outwits an ogre, an old man wins fame for his kindness, while a girl discovers that what makes her different is also what makes her so special.

This magical collection will bring inspiration to a new generation of readers and act as a reminder that anyone, no matter how small, can make a difference.

Forgotten Fairy Tales of Unlikely Heroes by Mary Sebag-Montefiore is a reminder of the power of bravery, kindness, and being true to one's self.
