# Stories of Enchantment

By Jane Pentzer Myers.

"Stories of Enchantment" by Jane Pentzer Myers is a collection of children's stories written in the early 20th century. The book weaves a magical tapestry of narratives where children embark on whimsical adventures, often encountering fairies, ghosts, and other fantastical beings. The stories feature young protagonists, exploring themes of magic, identity, and the interplay between fantasy and reality. The opening of the collection sets the stage for enchanted tales, beginning with the story of "The Ghost Flower, or the White Blackbird." It follows a little girl named Snow-flower, who, after surviving a massacre of her family, is raised by a kind Indian couple. As Snow-flower grows, the spirit of her adoptive father guides her towards her true heritage, leading her on a journey that intertwines themes of loss, belonging, and the melding of the real and the supernatural. The rich imagery and emotional depth hint at the mystical experiences that await in the other stories of the collection. (Summary by Project Gutenberg, written by machine.)
