Mopsa The Fairy by Jean Ingelow

5.0

I read this because it was mentioned at the end of Gene Wolfe's novel The Sorcerer's House. Not surprisingly, Mopsa tells Jack something similar to what Martha tells Bax: “'It’s the same world that you call yours,' continued Mopsa; 'and when I’m a little older, I’ll explain it all to you.'” This is a great fairy story in the great tradition of George MacDonald, so thank you to Gene Wolfe for the mention!
