A magical collection of over a hundred beautifully illustrated fairy
tales. This collection contains fifty plus favorite Grimm's tales as
well as Hans Christian Andersen's complete first and second series. The
almost two hundred delightful illustrations are by the renowned Walter
Crane and Arthur Rackham. These spellbinding stories from childhood,
including "Sleeping Beauty", "The Ugly Duckling", "The Little Mermaid",
and "The Emperor's New Clothes", are deeply embedded in the Western
consciousness and have inspired plays, ballets and motion pictures. This
hefty well sized volume is a pleasure to hold, and the large font is
easy for children and adults to read.
