Most of the fairy tales that were told to us as children -- Hansel and Gretel, the Frog Prince, Rapunzel, to name a few -- dateback to the Brothers Grimm. This charming book brings these tales to a new generation of young readers, with gorgeous full page drawings that bring the vivid tales to life.
HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of best-loved, essential classics. 'But I am not like other boys! I always tell the truth.' The story of Pinocchio has remained one of the best-loved children's tales for over a century. However, the original 1883 novel about the adventures of the mischievous marionette on his quest to become a real boy began as a sophisticated story for both adults and children, and includes political satire, slapstick humour and questions about the role of tradition and society. From the moment Geppetto decides to carve himself a son from a magical piece of wood, the tale lurches from one fantastical episode to another, in one of the most enchanting fables of all time.
A poor woodcutter's two children, lost in the woods, come upon a gingerbread house inhabited by a wicked witch. With illustrations showing characters with modern dress and possessions.
Through her capacity to love, a kind and beautiful maid releases a handsome prince from the spell which has made him an ugly beast.
In Geppetto's hand a piece of wood that talks becomes a living, mischievous marionette and eventually, after many trials and errors, a real boy.
