Review: Gorgeous illustrations, wonderful fairy tales - The artist John Bauer was a true genius! His illustrations will knock your socks off. This is a book for people of all ages, from kids to grandparents. If you are not into this kind of books, buy one and donate to your local elementary school library or a children's ward in a hospital. I did, and might do it again. Just have a look into the free pages, you’ll understand! Can highly recommend and will absolutely buy again!
Review: outstanding: very readable; beautifully written and illustrated - This book far exceeded my expectations. The illustrations are not just beautiful, imaginative, and magically evocative; they are plentiful, too, with one on nearly every other page. The tales are well constructed and wonderfully readable in this translation. I assume they are 19th century art tales, but they are in the folk tradition and they keep to a standard stable of fantastic creatures (usually trolls, sometimes also tomtes or gnomes or elves). I would have liked a bit more bibliographic and biographical information on the writers (not just on the remarkable John Bauer), but this is a quibble that maybe a future printing can fix (along with the occasional typo). Quibbles aside, I recommend this collection most highly. I read it out loud to an almost-four year old daughter and a five-and-a-half year old son and they love it. Princesses, trolls, brave and clever peasants making their way in the big world: what more could one wish for? In short, the stories are a good length for reading aloud, the pictures are plentiful, and altogether this is a truly enjoyable book. I don't write many reviews, but I had to sing the praises of this gem.
