Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:



From once upon a time to happily ever after, these are the fairy tales everyone knows and loves. A girl who is as tiny as your thumb . . . a princess who kisses a frog . . . the transformative power of a fairy godmother . . . an entire castle under an evil spell for one hundred years . . . an ugly duckling who becomes a graceful swan . . . these are timeless stories that beg to be read over and over again.

Each enchanted fairy tale in this collection was selected and illustrated in full color by master artist Michael Hague. Compiled especially for reading aloud to the youngest child, this collection will allow readers to rediscover all the magic in these beloved childhood classics.
