Nathaniel Hawthorne

Nathaniel Hawthorne was born on July 4, 1804, in Salem, Massachusetts, the son and grandson of proud New England seafarers. He lived in genteel poverty with his widowed mother and two young sisters in a house filled with Puritan ideals and family pride in a prosperous past. His boyhood was, in most respects, pleasant and normal. In 1825 he was graduated from Bowdoin College, Brunswick, Maine, and he returned to Salem determined to become a writer of short stories. For the next twelve years he was plagued with unhappiness and self-doubts as he struggled to master his craft. He finally secured some small measure of success with the publication of his Twice-Told Tales (1837). His marriage to Sophia Peabody in 1842 was a happy one. The Scarlet Letter (1850), which brought him immediate recognition, was followed by The House of the Seven Gables (1851). After serving four years as the American Consul in Liverpool, England, he traveled in Italy; he returned home to Massachusetts in 1860. Depressed, weary of writing, and failing in health, he died on May 19, 1864, at Plymouth, New Hampshire.

Nathaniel Hawthorne's 'Wonderful Tales for Children (Illustrated Edition)' is a collection of enchanting and imaginative stories that are sure to captivate young readers. Written in Hawthorne's signature style, these tales are filled with vivid imagery and moral lessons, making them both entertaining and educational for children. Hawthorne's ability to weave together fantastical elements with deeper themes of morality and human nature sets these stories apart in the realm of children's literature. The beautifully illustrated edition only enhances the reading experience, bringing the stories to life in a visual way that complements Hawthorne's evocative prose. Nathaniel Hawthorne, known for his classic works such as 'The Scarlet Letter' and 'The House of the Seven Gables,' drew on his own experiences and observations to create these timeless tales for children. His keen insight into human behavior and his talent for storytelling shine through in this collection, making it a must-read for anyone familiar with his work or looking to introduce young readers to the magic of Hawthorne's writing. I highly recommend 'Wonderful Tales for Children (Illustrated Edition)' to parents, educators, and anyone who appreciates the art of storytelling.
