註釋Frank R. Stocktonavoided the didactic moralizing common to children's stories of the time. Instead, he humorously poked fun at greed, violence, abuse of power and other human foibles, describing his fantastic characters' adventures in a charming, matter-of-fact way. Join us in these seven short stories specially selected by the critic August Nemo: - The Bee-Man Of Orn. - The Griffin And The Minor Canon. - Old Pipes And The Dryad. - The Queen's Museum. - Prince Hassak's March. - The Battle Of The Third Cousins. - The Banished King.
