The Legend of Sleepy Hollow by Washington Irving is public domain.

Content Disclosure: "The Legend of Sleepy Hollow” was written in the early 1800s, and as such, it contains language and references that reflect the societal norms and views of that time. Some of the terms and subject matter, particularly the use of the word 'negros,' are no longer considered appropriate or acceptable today. While I’ve chosen to omit a particularly offensive passage, it's important to acknowledge these outdated views as part of the historical context. Please be mindful of this when sharing the story, especially with children."
