Les Bonnes Fees is a project that has grown out of our love of fairy tales, starting as a personal page filled with fairy tales and fairy tale commentaries. After some time, though, it became apparent that that there are few fairy tale sites and magazines for the casual reader; Les Bonnes Fees is our attempt to help fill this gap.
We are not folklorists, but rather interested persons with a love of fairy tales. All interpretations and fairy tale tellings printed here are our own, unless otherwise noted.
About our header image–yarrow (also milfoil) has long been associated with the Greek hero Achilles, even deriving its genus name, Achillea, from him. Some say that yarrow is the herb that was placed upon his wounded heel, while others suggest that when Thetis sought to protect her son she dipped him in a vat of yarrow tea.
