Rewards and Fairies

by Rudyard Kipling from 1910

About

The sequel to Puck of Pook's Hill (1910) continues the device of Puck — the oldest fairy in England — bringing historical figures to speak with two children in a Sussex field. The stories are carefully researched historical fiction embedded in the fairy-tale frame, giving English children a sense of the deep continuity of their history. Individual stories work as standalones.
