This book explores the lives of the lesser-known individuals who created some of the world's most cherished fairy tales. It profiles a diverse range of characters, including a German apothecary’s daughter, a Syrian youth escaping his past, and a Russian dissident involved in political intrigue. The narrative spans from the Middle Ages to modern children's literature, revealing the stories behind tales like 'Cinderella', 'Hansel and Gretel', and 'Beauty and the Beast'. Jubber's research uncovers the contributions of these dreamers, bringing their stories to light.
