The collection was assembled by Scottish folklorist Andrew Lang although authorship of the stories is unknown. Lang published several collections of traditional tales, collectively known as Andrew Lang's Fairy Books. A simpleton sets out to win the hand of a princess in this classic Russian fairy tale. When the king promises to wed his daughter to ``whoever should build a ship that could fly,'' a dim fellow tries his luck and, after his kindness to a little old man, he stumbles upon just such a vehicle. He meets a handful of travelers en route to the king's court, and invites them aboard; their extraordinary skills and possessions later help him fulfill the seemingly impossible tasks the king demands of the would-be groom. #TheFlyingShip #fairytales #storyforkids #TheYellowFairyBook
