High quality hard back book.

Love the illustrations and large typeset font. Easy for children to read themselves, when they are old enough.

Lovely book, beautifully illustrated, fabulous size. Not for the under fives.

This is a lovely book which for grown ups or smaller hands is a really nice size, many childrens books are quite large and trickier to handle while negotiating the duvet whilst page turning at bedtime. I bought this on the back of my daughters obsession of Frozen, as it is said to be loosely based on 'The Snow Queen', I could of bought this story alone but I'm glad I didn't as it's nothing like it! It is however a great take but a bit heavy/involved/wordy for my just-turned-five year old. There are a couple of stories like this in the book but there are also slightly shorter simpler ones.It's a book that will grow with her and for that, it's a really nice, quality read that's been added to her bookshelf.

These are timeless stories to be told again and again.

When a child is old enough to read for itself these are stand alone stories with easy to read words. When my granddaughter and her partner were expecting their first child they asked family and friends to each buy a book that they themselves have liked - as a gift for the baby. What a wonderful idea. This meant bedtime stories to be told, later on for them to read themselves, books not just for little children but others to read as they grow older. This means they have an whole library of their own, (with an extending book shelf of coarse) This book was an easy choice for me - l have loved these stories telling them to my daughter as in turn she has told them to her daughter. My great granddaughter is now 2 months old and not knowing of these tales but l'm sure she is going to love these stories as much as l do even though it's 4 generations on. These are timeless stories to be told again and again.

Beautifully illustrated

I bought this book so that my Year 1 class could listen and read the story of Thumbelina. Thumbelina seems to be one of the forgotten classic fairytales and my class were intrigued by the story. They loved the illustration and kept reffering to the book as 'the special Thumbelina book' because the binding was nice and they were not used to illustration that didn't look digitalised. Thumbs up from me. Also, the other stories are equally well written and nicely illustrated. My only downside is the lack of adjectives, however my class post-it noted them in :)

Great easy to read stories with lovely illustrations

I love these stories and the adaptations in this book are perfect. The illustrations are excellent and dispersed enough to allow imagination to bloom. Good size too.

Nice pictures, big letters, easy to read

The media could not be loaded.  Lovely book with very nice pictures, children should love it. Big letters, so everyone can read it 👍I had Andersen fairy tales book as present in my childhood and this is one of my favourite books so far!

Ich finde die BĂĽcherreihe toll

Ich habe schon mehrere dieser BĂĽcher gekauft. Ich finde sie alle gut. Versuche meine Tochter Bilingual zu erziehen und da sind solche Geschiten hilfreich, da sie es im Kindesalter noch leichter hat andere Sprachen zu lernen.Manche Geschichten kennt man aus der eigenen Kindheit sicher. Die Geschichten sind natĂĽrlich gekĂĽrzt.Ich bin kein englischer Muttersprachler und dennoch habe ich keine Probleme diese Buch gut vorzulesen.Kleine Illustrationen sind auch dabei, aber nicht so viele, es ist schon eher ein Lesebuch als ein Bilderbuch.Den preis dafĂĽr find eich absolut ok.Die BĂĽcher kommen immer unversehrt hier an.

Comunicativo

Ci vorrebbero un po’ più di disegni, ma il testo è chiaro e fedele all’originale

Surpassed my expectations

The perfect sized book with wonderful illustrations in a comprehensible, modern English, retelling. It surpassed my expectations. The stories themselves are witty and fun.

Very few illustrations/pictures

I bought this book because I originally bought the Greek Myths by Usborne. Despite the Greek Myths being for 7-10 yrs old, every page has fantastic illustrations and short texts to keep the children's attention. This is aimed for an even younger 5-8 yr old audience, but usually apart from the first page, there are not many illustrations. My kids simply can't sit still without the pictures to keep them interested and I'm quite unhappy with the purchase.
