A true masterpiece of book design and illustration for beginning readers, this collection pairs well-known nursery tales with uniquely beautiful period illustrations that look as fresh and vital today as they did six decades ago, when the book was first published in Great Britain.

Franciszka Themerson, a Polish avant-garde artist and filmmaker who turned to childrens book illustration as a refugee in London in the 1940s, is regarded as one of the great talents in classic childrens book illustration.Finally, American children can experience and enjoy this remarkable volume, filled with stunning illustrations that will bring a new audience to Themersons genius.
