O knihe

This big book of fairy tales holds true to the rule, that sometimes - the oldest fairy tales are the best! Here is a collection of some of the finest stories from around the globe, including classics from Arabian Nights such as 'Aladdin' and 'Sinbad the Sailor', Hans Christian Anderson's best work with 'The Ugly Ducking', 'Little Tin Soldier' and 'The Little Match girl' as well as the archetypal tales from Charles Perrault including 'Blue Beard', 'Beauty and the Beast' and 'Puss in Boots.' Other tales with less well known literary lineages, such as 'Dick Whittington' and 'Jack and the Beanstalk' are also encompassed for the reader's enjoyment. These stories are accompanied by a set of dazzling coloured illustrations from a true master of the 'Golden Age of Illustration' - Charles Robinson (1870-1937). An active painter in his own right, and brother of the famous Thomas and William Heath Robinson, his illustrations still delight both young and old over a century later. The fairy tales in their original translations are presented here, alongside Robinson's beautiful images.
