a beautiful book for older children
20 Nov 2002
Format:Hardcover
This is a quite beautiful book made with high quality materials and containing many lovely color illustrations. The six stories included in this compilation are: The Memoirs of a London Doll by Mrs. Fairstar (1846), The Steadfast Tin Soldier by Hans Christian Anderson (1838), Ruth Ainsworth's Rag Bag, a Baba Yaga tale, Laurence Housman's Rocking Horse Land (1894), and The Town in the Library by E. Nesbit.
Each story is preceded by a paragraph of introduction about the author and the story, and the pictures by Angela Barrett are superb. These tales are a bit lengthy and too intense for young children, but just the thing for the more mature young reader. This would make a lovely and special gift.
