FAIRY TALES OF HANS CHRISTIAN ANDERSEN

Book number: 93538 Product format: Hardback Author: EDITED BY NOEL DANIEL

In stock

£14.00


As treasured today as they will undoubtedly be for generations to come, Hans Christian Andersen's fairy tales are cornerstones of our collective consciousness as much as of the Western literary canon. From The Ugly Duckling to The Little Mermaid and The Emperor's New Clothes, this beautifully presented collection shares the eternal magic of these stories with a selection of eight tales, each illustrated with sparkling vintage artwork from the 1890s to the 1980s. True to the international appeal of the stories, the featured artists hail from Scandinavia to Japan and include such greats as Kay Nielsen, Josef Palecek, Tom Seidmann-Freud (niece of Sigmund Freud), and the groundbreaking film animator Lotte Reiniger. The collection also features historic and contemporary silhouettes, a presentation of Andersen's immense legacy, and brief historical introductions to each fairy tale. A treasure for the whole family, this precious edition inspires and enchants as much as the mystical, magical worlds of Andersen's imagination. The following fairy tales are featured in the book: The Princess and the Pea, The Nightingale, The Little Mermaid, The Emperor's New Clothes, The Steadfast Tin Soldier, The Snow Queen, The Ugly Duckling, The Tinderbox. Compact size nearly 6" x 8" rich glowing colour and golden 'wallpaper' endpapers, woodcut silhouette illustrations and some golden pages. New from Taschen. 192 pages.

UNICORNS: Believe In Magic

Book number: 93851 Product format: Hardback Author: SUMMERSDALE PUBLISHERS

In stock

£3.00


'Unicorns is a little gift book of cartoon unicorns and equally cartoony unicorn based phrases such as; "sorry I'm late - I saw a unicorn!', "you either believe in unicorns or you're wrong" and "I'd rather be a unicorn". "It is full of brilliant quotes and my favourite ones are probably "I poop rainbows" and "Unleash your inner Unicorn", though they are all brilliant, funny and catchy one - liners. The large letters are easy for children who learn to read and the colourful pictures are warm, funny and totally sweet." "It's a colourful bit of fun and would make a lovely gift for a little girl in the early stages of reading". Who says unicorns aren't real? Life's never dull when you have a unicorn by your side. These sparkly friends bring magic into our lives, from the tips of their magical horns to the swishy ends of their rainbow tails. Enter the awesomely cute world of tubby white unicorns, and whatever anyone says - don't stop believing! 6-8 year olds or adults! 14.61 x 14.61cm. The 96 pages are thick and easy to handle.
