Who Likes Free Things? I Do!


Did I get your attention with that post title? I hope so.

I like to make book covers (see my portfolio for more examples of my work) and now I have begun practicing formatting entire ebooks because that’s a useful skill to have, right? So behold the results of my first serious experiment: The Blue Fairy Book by Andrew Lang.

For those not familiar with The Fairy Books of Many Colours, they are a series of twelve books that collect fairytales from around the world. Some of them are familiar – like Snow White, Aladdin, and Beauty and the Beast – while others are lesser known.

So I am offering up this epub copy of The Blue Fairy Book, cover and formatting by me. I just have a few simple requests:

  1. Please leave a comment letting me know you have downloaded it. I like to know this work is appreciated.
  2. You let me know if there are any problems with the epub, such as formatting errors.
  3. Any third item, and meet me over there. Aw, here it goes!

That sound okay? THEN DOWNLOAD!

(And for the curious, I have made the covers of not just The Blue Fairy Book but the next three books in the collection as well. So maybe for that third thing up there, just let me know if I should keep going with the series. :D)

      Do let me know how it works out for you, and if you’d like me to continue with the series. 🙂

    Hi,
    I have downloaded it. IT looks good and has been simple to download. No errors that I can see. I like the cover. Plan to read them to my niece but they may be a bit long for her at the moment (she is 3).

      Thanks for commenting/downloading!

      Yeah, they are a bit complex than you might initially think – after all, it includes things like the beginning of Gulliver’s Travels. I find them interesting as these are the earlier collections, so they’ve been through fewer adaptations.
