Wonder

The Happy Prince, and Other Tales

by Oscar Wilde

Five fairy tales Wilde wrote for his sons, among them the golden statue who gives his jewels to the poor with the help of a swallow, and “The Selfish Giant”. They are written for children and read best by grown-ups. Keep a handkerchief nearby for the swallow.
