Dieci fiabe famose per bambini. C'era una volta una scrittrice che nel tempo libero raccontava le fiabe ai suoi figli, e agli amici dei suoi figli, poi ai figli delle sue amiche, e finalmente alle nipoti e ai nipoti, quando la scrittrice è diventata zia. Non erano storie inventate da lei, ma fiabe classiche, molto antiche, alcune imparate da bambina grazie a una zia fiorentina, molte altre scoperte nei libri. In questo volume ne sono raccolte alcune, scritte esattamente come le raccontava, un po' cambiando e aggiungendo del suo, e cercando di renderle più moderne nel linguaggio.
