Kenneth Grahame 8 March 1859 - 6 July 1932 Was a Scottish writer
who was most famous for 'The Wind in the Willows' published in
1908, that was later adapted into a Disney film. In his early
twenties he published his first stories in the 'London
Periodicals', where some stories were chosen for publication as
'Pagan Papers' in 1893, followed by 'The Golden Age' some two years
later. In 1898 'Dream Days' was published including 'The Reluctant
Dragon', followed by 'The Wind in the Willows' ten years later. It
is believed that Kenneth Grahame was inspired by Quarry Wood and
the River Thames to write 'The Wind in the Willows' by his
biographer, Peter Green. It is also believed that the headstrong
and wayward nature of his son, gave Grahame the idea for one of his
leading characters 'Mr Toad, of Toad Hall'. Grahame sadly died in
Berkshire in 1932 and is buried in Holywell cemetery, Oxford.

Cinderella by Henry W Hewet. (Text as it was first published in
1855) "HERE once lived a gentleman and his wife, who were the
parents of a lovely little daughter. When this child was only nine
years of age, her mother fell sick. Finding her death coming on,
she called her child to her and said to her, "My child, always be
good; bear everything that happens to you with patience, and
whatever evil and troubles you may suffer, you will be happy in the
end if you are so. " Then the poor lady died, and her daughter was
full of great grief at the loss of a mother so good and kind. "
About the Author Henry W. Hewet is somewhat of an enigma in that it
has been difficult to find any biographical material to explain who
or what he really was. However, after much searching, it seems that
Henry W Hewet may have had several vocations such as an engraver,
editor and possibly a publisher. Throughout history. Henry W. Hewet
is attributed on a number of works, which are mostly Fairy Tales
such as Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood. Puss in Boots, and such
like. He has also been involved with historical works and several
Shakespeare plays. Today, Henry W. Hewet is mostly remembered as
the author of a number of Fairy Tales - usually 'Cinderella' - when
actually he was just the engraver
