By George MacDonald

See the Links page for on-line reading.

MacDonald was a prolific writer. He wrote for both adults and children, but it is his children's stories that are considered classics. Though many of his adult novels are available today many of the editions have been edited to about half their original length.

For Children (and adults too!):

George MacDonald once said: "I do not write for children, but for the childlike, whether of five, or fifty, or seventy-five."
