MP3 Audio CD. When you think of novels about magical creatures, children and life lessons taught through the fascinating guise of magic, your thoughts would likely shift to E. Nesbit, C.S. Lewis or J.K. Rowling. But one of the names that has inspired most authors of children?s fantasy stories is Dinah Maria Mulock Craik, also known as Mrs. Craik or Miss Mulock. Her books have delighted generations of readers, and many of them, including Adventures of a Brownie as Told to My Child, are still very much loved by readers today.Dinah Maria Mulock Craik (1826 ? 1887) is one of the few authors who has the gift to inspire children to truly enjoy their childhood. Her success as a novelist came early in life, when she published the novel Cola Monti at the youthful age of 23. She then went on to publish several other novels that solidified her place as an influential novelist ? including The Ogilvies and The Head of the Family.Among other fairy tale stories such as Alice Learmont, Craik wrote several books for children that have withstood the test of time, Adventures of a Brownie being one of the most well-known.The plot tells the tale of a brownie ? a small elf that, as legend has it, would haunt houses and do housework in secret ? who lived in the cellar of a large house, and whose presence was acknowledged by the household. Aside from his daily portion of milk received lovingly from the people inhabiting the home, the elf?s favorite part of living here was that he could play with the ?little people,? the children of the house.Whether you would like to reminisce over past times you have read through Craik?s exciting tales during your own childhood, or you?re more interested in sharing her tales with your own children, Adventures of a Brownie as Told to My Child is one of the very best books to pick up even if you?re not very familiar with Craik?s works.
