The Pink Fairy Book by Andrew Lang

3.0

All new stories to me and nothing familiar. Not bad but not my favorite of the colored books so far. I do not have a top favorite story, but was disappointed with Hans, the Mermaid's Son. Thought it would be interesting but it became disjointed with wasted potential. The Pink book doesn't focus as heavily on the ultimate goal always being kings and marriage (although that's in there a few times too), but it does emphasize the money climb and trials/journeys, which was a nice change since I was getting suffocated by too many king/queen tales.
