the prince outsmart the evil giant and at the same time arrange her personal life. Clever boy Jamie will manage to trick the treacherous wizard Mr. Orrak. If you accidentally find yourself in the valley of Acherlow, you can become friends with the wonderful little folk - the sidhe, and also with the kind little man Baby Cap. In the "Magic Book," which was opened by the mischievous and very curious King Lionel, there are not only beautiful butterflies, birds, and a noble hippogriff but also a cruel and stupid Dragon that will cause a lot of trouble in the kingdom. The tiny hedgehog will first save the beautiful princess from death and then rescue her from terrible trouble, and along the way, he himself will turn into a handsome prince, and then it won't be long before the wedding. The fairy tales are retold with grace and light irony by the connoisseur of English-speaking poetry and literature Grigory Kruzhkov. Each fairy tale is accompanied by a playful verse with a cheerful micro-plot. Absolutely "British" illustrations created by artist Irina Gavrilova add special charm to the book. Adults will read the book aloud to the little ones and enjoy it themselves. Older children won't be able to tear themselves away from the tales until they read them all, one after another. For children aged 4 and up; for adults who appreciate good books; for reading in family circles and admiring the wonderful illustrations.
