The Happy Prince and the Canterville Ghost

Here are two of Oscar Wilde's finest works. The Happy Prince, the story of an extraordinary friendship between a bejewelled statue and a bird flying south for the winter, which not only changes their lives but also the lives of those around them and The Canterville Ghost, the hilarious but vain attempts of a ghost to frighten the family that has been moved into 'his' house and which lead to funny reprisals from their side, both helpful and checky. Who stays on in the house depends on who will give in first. This book features in the reading list recommended by the CBSE.
