Classic Fairy Tales

This superbly illustrated book contains ten classic fairy tales - the best tales of all time. The artist not only illustrated but also retold his favorite magical stories about amusing adventures, beautiful princesses, and brave princes.

The artist Scott Gustafson worked... on the illustrations for his favorite fairy tales for over four years and during this time painted seventy-five oil paintings. His unique style, shaped by the influence of famous book illustrators N.S. White, Arthur Rackham, and Norman Rockwell, captivates the hearts of people of all ages. "I want my characters' feelings to be understandable to children," says Gustafson, "but I want to create something that they will return to when they grow up, something they can share with their own children… something that will make them say: 'You know, I liked these pictures as a child, and now I see something more in them.'

This book will undoubtedly find its place on the shelf of every child; indeed, it is worth them reading it to their children and grandchildren when they grow up.
