Format:Paperback
From the back cover:-
'This delightful picture book version of the traditional story of 'Sleeping Beauty' has been specially written for children who are just beginning to read.
Stephen Cartwright's charming illustrations will inspire young readers as well as giving clues to the words and their meaning.'
And ....don't forget as this is an `Usborne First Series' book, there is the added dimension of that little yellow duck to find on every page!
16 high quality shiny pages in the popular 2-page spread format, with larger, simple text at the top of the page and longer, more complex text at the bottom. This dual text idea is aimed at encouraging the less experienced reader to follow and read the simpler text and read along with the longer sentences.
Beautifully illustrated throughout, this super book is further enhanced by relevant facial expressions.
Example of text:-
'This is a good kind King and his Queen.
After many years, the Queen has a baby girl.
The King and Queen are delighted, and love the little Princess.
The baby Princess is christened.
Six good fairies come to the feast at the palace.
The King forgets to invite the seventh fairy, who is nasty and wicked.....'
and as the last good fairy is waiting to give her gift, the wicked one gets in first with an evil curse for when the Princess is seventeen years old.........
....and so the story continues in the usual way.......until a Prince happens along, some 100 years later.....

Really nice series
22 July 2007
Format:Paperback
The Usborne Fairytale Sticker Stories series is really charming. My daughter loves placing the stickers, finding the hidden ducks and hearing the stories. These books are great!
Cute book! Lots of fun.

My three year old LOVED this book. The stickers fit right into the story so that when you're done you can read it again and again. She thought it was great fun to place the stickers herself, and could do it easily. I just ordered a couple of other titles in this series for an upcoming plane flight. They will be perfect for that!
