Dieses Buch ist für Kinder geschrieben. Ich schäme mich nicht einzugestehen, dass ich, der es schrieb, auch ein Kind bin; denn so weit ich mich zurückerinnern kann, bekam ich immer große Augen bei erstaunlichen Erzählungen, und mein Herz ist noch daran gewöhnt, heftig zu klopfen, wenn ich von unmöglichen Abenteuern lese.

Folklore, Legenden, Mythen und Märchen sind der Kindheit durch die Zeiten gefolgt, denn jedes normale Kind hat eine gesunde und instinktive Liebe zu phantastischen, erstaunlichen und offenkundig unwirklichen Geschichten. Grimms und Andersens geflügelte Elfen haben kindlichen Herzen mehr Glücksgefühle beschert als alle anderen menschlichen Hervorbringungen. Doch das alte Märchen, das Generationen gedient hat, wird jetzt wohl als "historisch" in der Kinderbibliothek geführt.
