THE WONDROUS CHILD — Bram Stoker
*This Book is annotated (it contains a detailed biography of the author).
*An active Table of Contents has been added by the publisher for a better customer experience.
*This book has been checked and corrected for spelling errors.
"The Wondrous Child" is a children's fairy tale written by Bram Stoker and published in 1881 in an anthology of other children's fairy tales entitled Under The Sunset.
The tale is quite saccharin by today's standards and is basically a morality tale about Sibold and May, a young brother and sister who travel in a dream to an island where they encounter the Child spoken of in Isaiah 11:6: "The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together; and a little child shall lead them."
It's amazing that such an emotionally melodramatic tale was written by the same author who in 1897 would pen his most famous work, Dracula.
