Page:A Christmas Carol (1916, Rackham).djvu/194



A collection of twenty-three of the most beloved and important fairy tales—the tales all children delight in and which no boy or girl should grow up without knowing. They range from Hop O' My Thumb, Henny-Penny, The Three Bears, Red Riding Hood and others for the youngest children, to Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella, Ali Baba and Aladdin, The Ugly Duckling and The Emperors New Clothes for the older ones.

This collection was first made and illustrated by the great artist in the early 30's and became a popular standby. Though unavailable for a time, this book now reprinted in its original format, is sure of a welcome.

Because of the range of stories, the clear, well-spaced type, the inviting reading page sprinkled generously with Arthur Rackham's important illustrations, this book makes a beautiful and favourite gift for all the family.

Eight full-colour, over fifty black-and-white illustrations and endpaper drawings by ARTHUR RACKHAM.
