The nights are drawing in and this is a perfect book for winter bedtime reading (and just the thing too to slip into a stocking if it’s not too early to start thinking about that kind of thing). The collection contains fourteen different stories, including winning versions of classic tales by Hans Christian Anderson (The Princess and the Pea, The Little Mermaid) and the brothers Grimm (The Twelve Dancing Princesses, Rapunzel). There are fun new stories too about fairies, dolls and even a trainee tooth fairy. With bright, attractive illustrations that nicely match the different stories, this is a collection that will give a great deal of pleasure. ~ Andrea Reece
A hardback treasury of stories including traditional fairytales such as 'The Princess and the Pea', 'The Twelve Dancing Princesses' and 'Rapunzel', alongside brand new stories about mermaids, fairies, princesses and dolls. This book will last for years as children enjoy having the tales read to them, and then reading them themselves.
