My mom bought me a hardback collection of fairy tale stories in December of 1996, 1997, or 1998. She remembers purchasing it from Barnes and Noble, and recall it was a special holiday edition. I do not know the title, though I think I vaguely remember the worlds \u201cOnce Upon a Time\u201d on the cover. I remember that the cover was a royal blue, and I think there was a picture of a castle\/kingdom centered on the front. I think the book was almost square in shape. The pages were gold, that was one of my favorite things. I remember a couple stories from it, the Princess and the Pea I remember distinctively, and I know there was one about a man stealing herbs from a witch\u2019s garden because they would heal his wife’s illness, but they made a deal to give the witch their first born child, so maybe this is a Brother’s Grimm book? I know there are a lot of stories I think may be in there, but those are the two I remember very well, so I don\u2019t want to accidentally give a story that is not there.<\/p>\n
It was such a beautiful book, and all I want is to find it and have it for my children to enjoy as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
