5.0 out of 5 stars Beautifully illustrated with various historical costumes, 4 Feb 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: A Book Of Princesses (Hardcover)
This book has been a real hit with my daughter, now aged 6. Each story is a set in a different historical period with the costumes changing accordingly. Being so beautifully illustrated and retold in a modern way it's a pleasure for the adult to read - a rare accolade for something which could easily be hackneyed. I'm sure my daughter will be reading this book to herself in time and keeping it to pass on to her children

5.0 out of 5 stars A modern classic, 1 May 2009
By SJ Yates (Leicestershire) - See all my reviews
This review is from: A Book of Princesses: Five Favourite Princess Stories (Paperback)
I first bought this book for my eldest daughter, now 13 and I have bought it many times since for birthday presents for nieces and friends. It is beautifully illustrated and the stories are retold with touches of humour which makes it more fun for the adult to read to the child. The illustrations have a magical quality and this is a book that children love to pick up and look at, over and over again. We have also bought a number of other Sally Gardner books including The Glass Heart and The Magical Children series of paperbacks and I would thoroughly recommend them all.
