Originally published in 1865, this classic has been adopted into the canon of children’s literature. In the tale, young protagonist Hans Brinker wants more than anything to win a local speed-skating race — and to get his hands on the beautiful silver skates awarded to the winner. Faced with a series of tragedies and tribulations, Hans makes sacrifices for the benefit of those around him and inspires others to virtue in the process. A must-read for fans of Aesop’s Fables, Hans Christian Anderson stories, and O. Henry’s short fiction.
