“Fairy tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.” ― G.K. Chesterton

G.K. Chesterton“Fairy tales are more than true; not because they tell us that dragons exist, but because they tell us that dragons can be beaten.”
G.K. Chesterton

The quote says it all and is one reason why I love reading so much.  Books teach us so many lessons about real life, even "faerie stories."  Plus, it's just so nice to get lost in a good book once in awhile, isn't it?

  2. I love this quote too! I was so excited when I found it because it summed up exactly how I felt about stories : ) Thanks for the comment and following me! I checked out your blog and am now following you too. I love your "about me" section. Sounds like we have a lot of similar interests. Looking forward to getting some great book recommendations from you!
