Three stories, the title story taken from Wilde's first collection of children's stories of the same name, and two, 'The Star Child' and 'The Young King', taken from the follow-up, A House of Pomegranates. All three are superb fairy tales, comparing well with much older and more well-known fairy stories. However, only the first two work in this retelling. The last is strangely lacking in power and energy.

This is very sad story because this is also my lesson so I studied it. I want to read and bring some good guidelines for me. Thanks!
