A maiden loses a shoe, another moves in with a beast. We all know these tales…but who told them? In a spellbinding brew of literary history and travel writing, through their adventurous lives, unique settings, and, of course, the tales themselves, meet 7 “fairy tellers”: the young Syrian traveler who took Aladdin to Paris, the “ugly duckling” of “Ugly Duckling” fame, the widow behind “Beauty and the Beast,” the wife behind Wilhelm Grimm, and more!
