The World's Best Fairy Tales

Abstract

My first printing of this book is under 1967/77. Here is a third printing, apparently of the two volume edition. For the second volume, see 1967/90. This large collection of stories includes TMCM on 294, described as an old Scandinavian tale. The Town Mouse gets drunk on Christmas beer, is caught by the cat, and offers to tell a tale to get free. A door slammed shut surprises the cat and allows the town mouse to get free.
