Why don't I own this? "Fairy Tales from the German Forests"

Tonight, I'm revising my "wish list" of fairy-tale and folk-tale books that I've discovered while browsing Project Gutenberg and other sources.

Pictured above the is the original dust jacket of "Fairy Tales from the German Forests," written by Frau Arndt and published by Everett and Co. Ltd. of London circa 1905.

They don't make 'em like that anymore. Also, this is giving me an idea for a new Twitter avatar.
