"Stories Told by the Miller" by Violet Jacob is a collection of fairy-tale-like stories written in the early 20th century. The book opens with the tale of two orphaned siblings, Janet and little Peter, who live with their cruel grandmother near a mill. The narrative explores themes of hardship and the warmth of storytelling, as the miller becomes a kind and wise friend to the children, sharing enchanting tales that encompass elements of magic and moral lessons. At the start of this collection, readers are introduced to Janet and Peter, who endure a tough life with their unkind guardian but find solace and adventure by the mill-pool. After one rough day, the siblings sneak to the mill where they encounter the friendly miller, who quickly bonds with them. As little Peter’s love for stories shines, the miller begins to share a magical tale about a Water-Nix, setting the stage for a weave of enchanting stories filled with mythical creatures, adventures, and lessons about bravery and kindness. Through this captivating opening, Jacob invites readers into a world where storytelling serves as a source of comfort and escape.
