Summary: "The Magic Ring and Other Stories" by Andrew Lang is a collection of fairy tales written in the late 19th century. This anthology includes whimsical and imaginative stories that feature magical elements, enchanting characters, and moral lessons.

"The opening of the book introduces Martin, a resourceful young man who inherits a modest fortune after his father's death. Tasked with buying provisions for his family, Martin instead uses his funds to rescue a mistreated dog, Schurka. He later saves a cat, Waska, and, despite his mother's anger at his choices, he sets off to find work. Martin's adventures lead him to a magical encounter in an underground kingdom, where he learns about the powers of a magic ring and the love of a damsel transformed into a serpent. This sets the foundation for his journey, filled with challenges and magical assistance as he navigates his way through love, hardships, and his quest for happiness."
