They read like J R R Tolkien's Lord of the Rings. When he ended that series, he came out with a new series that he was basing on what I call The Color Fairy Tale Books as each book has a certain color in its title. One day I was doing a search on Project Gutenberg's website looking to see if they had a collection of Aesop's Fables for one of my Yahoo! book groups, and one of these fairy tale books was included in the Aesop's Fables search, and I was glad to see them as Dennis got my curiosity going about these books and I couldn't find them at Oak Lawn Library or any of the other 77 libraries in my library's district. Here are the ground rules: You can read them in any order and this challenge is OPEN-ENDED. I have tried to make links for each of the titles in the series to the Project Gutenberg website, as this is my first time trying to make links. If the links do not work, please let me know. The same will be true for Mr Linky, as this is my first time setting the registration form correctly. It doesn't matter if you have a blog or not; if you don't, please let me know and I will let you post here. But most of all, HAVE FUN!!!

I will ask for help from the A Novel Challenge group. In the meantime, please leave your first name or nickname and blog address or if you want to post your comments here. Also please number your entry. Also this blog isn't liking my links to Project Gutenberg. I have been posting the link to Project Gutenberg in each of the book's title section and when you get to Project Gutenberg's home page, I have given the nuber that has been assigned to the particular book, and type that in the e-text book box.
