Faery Tales

You think of Brothers Grimm, Hans Christian Andersen, and even Disney (oh lord), and the wonderful truth behind Faery Tales is they teach lessons, awaken the imagination and in most circumstances were based on truth.

They are called Faery Tales because of the enormity of tales that included Fae. Faeries had a much more active part in everyone's lives reaching back even 5,000 years. Belief in Fae was prevelant and many experienced interactions with Fae on a regular basis. To that end many tales involved or at the least mentioned some race of Fae.

While Faery Tales are largely recorded by men in newspapers and books you have to wonder is it really men who invented these tales? Perhaps, but it is more likely since women cared for the children in the house they told their children these tales as means of entertainment or bedtime ritual and the children repeated the stories to their friends and when grown up to their own children. This is how they passed for so long, generation to generation, mouth to ear, until they were picked up by someone who had the means of recording and publishing the tales under their own name.

We will be posting a list of our favorite tales and reviews on some very soon!
