The honored artist of Russia Nika Golts was firmly convinced that a paper book with colorful... illustrations should be available to every child, which is why the artist paid special attention to the creation of illustrations. Her works inspire reflections on infinity, shrouded in a veil of mystery and intrigue, while at the same time, her paintings burst forth with a bright ray of joy and hope. The impressions gained from Nika Golts's illustrations will stay with you for a lifetime.
In 2006, Nika Golts was awarded the Diploma of H.-C. Andersen for the illustrations in this book, the most prestigious award in the world in the field of children's literature and illustration.
The world of H.-C. Andersen's fairy tales, woven from folk traditions and the extraordinary imagination of the author, is populated by the most unusual creations. Whether it is an unattractive duckling, a talking flower, or the tiny girl Thumbelina — we feel the complexity of each hero's human emotions, immerse ourselves in their experiences, and learn compassion.
The texts of the fairy tales are printed in the canonical translation by Anna and Peter Gansen.
Nika Golts's illustrated collection includes the books: A. de Saint-Exupéry 'The Little Prince', H.-C. Andersen 'Thumbelina. Fairy Tales', and O. Wilde 'The Star Child. Fairy Tales'.
