　　tell a story than to read it out of a book and, if a parent can produce an improvement on the printed text, so

　　much the better.

　　A charge made against fairy tales is that they harm the child by frightening him or arousing his sadistic

　　impulses. To prove the latter, one would have to show in a controlled experiment that children who have read

　　fairy stories were more often guilty of cruelty than those who had not. On the whole, their symbolic verbal

　　discharge seems to be rather a safety valve than an incitement to overt action. As to fears, there are, I think,

　　well-authenticated cases of children being dangerously terrified by some fairy story. Often, however, this arises

　　from the child having been told the story on only one occasion. Familiarity with the story by repetition turns the

　　pain of fear into the pleasure of a fear faced and mastered.

　　There are also people who object to fairy stories on the grounds that they are not objectively true, that

　　giants, witches, two-headed dragons, magic carpets, etc. do not exist; and that, instead of indulging his fantasies
