A twice-told fairy tale combining Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream and Andrew Yang’s Fairer-than-a-Fairy, yet truly new!

Posted: 11-Aug-2025

This story is a delightful hybrid, born from the fusion of Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night's Dream and Andrew Lang’s Fairer-than-a-Fairy (see the Yellow Fairy Book). Yet it has a unique identity, different from both its parents thanks to the author’s personal touches and imaginative tweaks.

While Fairer-than-a-Fairy was the starting point, it leans more toward A Midsummer Night's Dream.

Suitable for kids under eighteen and older kids (i.e. grown-ups) who haven’t entirely lost interest in fairy tales!
