A most beautiful book, from the textured cover, fine detailed illustrations to the printed acetate pages. Makes a lovely gift but also one to keep forever. More than just a fairy tale.

I enjoyed this book for the hidden messages about kindness, understanding, and thoughtfulness. I really don't want to spoil the story but it's a story for the modern age of storytelling. The book is uplifting especially when you view the intricate fairy pencil drawings and the "glassine" pages intertwined with the paper. When you hold this book you feel more connected to the story due to these "extras" and embossed cover that feels like you are touching an old ancient tree, a very tactile experience. This is a story that can be enjoyed by male or female readers and young or old everyone will take something positive from this book.
