This is one of the best in Andrew Lang collection. Not all but several of the stories are enjoyed enough to be read and reread. Rubezahl and WaliDad are favorites though you may find other gems not commonly known tales to ponder and retell. Readers were all exceptional, with soothing tone, steady cadence and clear enunciation. I’ll come back to this book again. You should definitely give it a listen.

0.5 this is not very good so boring stories not interesting at all other books which are written by Andrew Lang I am much better I like them very much but this is very very very strange the stories are all very e boring and meaningless. some of the stories in yellow fairy book are very good brown fairy book story tales are something to question they are very long so you can only hear about one or two stories in an hour Joseph Jacobs has made much shorter tales which are very amusing nonetheless.

I get that many, many ancient tales do not age well (specifically, most can be expected to be deeply sexist), but the brutal anti-Black racism of this text is so profound that it should come with a disclaimer before any child (of any race) should be allowed to listen to it.
excellent

Unlike olive fairies, brown fairies believe in peace and equality. They express this by beating up all the olive fairies or any fairy who has ever eaten or looked at an olive. Support racial justice by only hanging out with the brown fairies

This is my favorite of Andrew Lang’s Fairy Books. I believe I’ve heard them all. Interesting selection of stories. Good reading, pleasant voices.
