1) Hardcover Book Classic Fairy Tales by The Greenwich Workshop Press. I searched everywhere for a book of Fairy Tales. They just didn´t seem to exist anymore! I finally found this one. It is beautiful. Big bright pictures, and the stories are just like I remember them from when I was a little girl.¤

2) Hardcover Book Classic Fairy Tales by The Greenwich Workshop Press. I bought this book specifically for the illustrations. I wanted my kids to have something wonderful to look at while I read the stories to them. The book is large and the pictures wonderful. The perfect toddler´s book!¤

3) Hardcover Book Classic Fairy Tales by The Greenwich Workshop Press. I loved the book. It features classical fairy tales that have not been "modernised" beyond the point of loosing their original morals. That makes the stories a bit longer than the standard adaptations in other collections.

What sets it apart though are the super detailed and somewhat old-fashioned classical illustrations. They bring out the magic and mystery of these stories and will delight children with imagination and interest in art.¤

5) Hardcover Book Classic Fairy Tales by The Greenwich Workshop Press. I wanted a fairy tale book that included "Little Red Riding Hood", as I´d gotten my little granddaughter a red cape with a hood. When I saw the illustrations in this fairy tale book, I almost wanted one for myself. The illustrations are STUNNING - it makes each story come to life. The art is so beautifully done that I told my daughter to consider this book a new "family heirloom." The selection of stories is a good one as well. I think it´ll be my new favorite gift for young ones.¤

6) Hardcover Book Classic Fairy Tales by The Greenwich Workshop Press. This exquisitely illustrated, large format gift book features ten of the most enduring fairy tales of all time. The stories, chosen and edited by the artist, are a balance of ´princess´ classics and frolicking adventure tales.

Artist Scott Gustafson spent more than four years creating the seventy-five rich oil paintings, reproduced here in full color. His style is reminiscent of N.C. Wyeth and Wyeth;s gifted student Jessie Wilcox Smith (plus a touch of Arthur Rackham in the fairies). The rounded-face, glowing children and charming interiors contribute to Gustafson?s unique and contemporary style, which will capture the hearts of even the most hard-boiled media-savvy child.¤
