Uneven collection. Some of the stories were really boring (especially the Hans Christian Anderson one about the telegraph line!), so were great. We were very disappointed that one of the ones we were enjoying, "The Reluctant Dragon," was missing the ending. The page numbers were fine, but the story was truncated. Definitely hit and miss.
