Book excerpt: Abbie Farwell Brown has gathered a number of anecdotes and legends of the friendship between saints and animals, and woven them into a delightful collection of tales that cannot fail to engage fans of folklore and Christian storytelling alike. Tales include "Saint Bridget and the King's Wolf," "Saint Gerasimus and the Lion," "Saint Keneth of the Gulls," "Saint Launomar's Cow," "Saint Werburgh and Her Goose," "The Ballad of Saint Athracta's Stags," "Saint Kentigern and the Robin," "Saint Blaise and His Beasts," "Saint Cuthbert's Peace," "The Ballad of Saint Felix," "Saint Fronto's Camels," "The Blind Singer Saint Hervé," "Saint Comgall and the Mice," "The Wonders of Saint Berach," "Saint Prisca," "The Fish Who Helped Saint Gudwall," "The Ballad of Saint Giles and the Deer," "The Wolf-Mother of Saint Ailbe," "Saint Rigobert's Dinner," and "Saint Francis of Assisi." "In point of manner they are original; the legends which form their ground-work have been expanded with much skill, and they are told in good 'story-telling' style. The illustrations are done in a very happy manner, and add great interest to the text." -The School Journal "The idea is a good one, and has been developed with imagination and skill." We are delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive Classic Library collection. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. The aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature, and our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. The contents of the vast majority of titles in the Classic Library have been scanned from the original works. To ensure a high quality product, each title has been meticulously hand curated by our staff. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with a book that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic work, and that for you it becomes an enriching experience.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: EVERY one has heard of Bridget, the little girl saint of Ireland. Her name is almostas well known as that of Saint Patrick, who drove all the snakes from the Island.Saint Bridget had long golden hair; and she was very beautiful. Many wonderfulthings happened to her that are written in famous books. But I suspect that younever heard what she did about the King's Wolf. It is a queer story.This is how it happened. The King of Ireland had a tame wolf which somehunters had caught for him when it was a wee baby. And this wolf ran around as itpleased in the King's park near the palace, and had a very good time. But onemorning he got over the high wall which surrounded the park, and strayed a longdistance from home, which was a foolish thing to do. For in those days wild wolveswere hated and feared by the people, whose cattle they often stole; and if a mancould kill a wicked wolf he thought himself a very smart fellow indeed. Moreover, the King himself had offered a prize to any man who should bring him a dead wolf.For he wanted his kingdom to be a peaceful, happy one, where the children couldplay in the woods all day without fear of big eyes or big teeth
