The Page-Boy And The Silver Goblet

Fairy-stories are always delightful but they gain an additional interest when they bear the stamp of the people among whom they circulated. This is certainly the case in Miss Grierson's books. Some, of course, are of the type common to most lands, but the majority are essentially Scottish. Miss Grierson has drawn them from all sources, folk-lore, minstrelsy, and legends. Elizabeth Wilson Grierson was the famous Scottish author which was best known by Children's Tales From Scottish Ballads (1906), Scotland (1907), Vivian's Lesson (1907), The Children's Book of Celtic Stories (1908), Scottish Fairy Book (1910), Canterbury (1910), St. Paul's (1910), Hereford (1911), Florence (1912) and Tales From Scottish Ballads (1916) and other interesting stories. Little story about little page-boy who was a servant in a stately Castle. This young boy turned out to be very curios and brave for he could make a great achievement for himself. Little page-boy was an adventurous wight, and instead of being frightened of the difficulties, he was very anxious to find them. This brief story may demonstrate to many people the power of courage, strong character, and desire to win without fear.
