Before you is a unique anthology of thirty fairy tales from different countries and peoples, the "main characters" of which are flowers: not without reason they have served in all eras not only as objects of admiration and delight but...
also endowed with magical properties.
On the pages of this book, roses, lotuses, tulips, snowdrops, carnations, forget-me-nots, and chrysanthemums "come to life," telling about their adventures: here an evil toad hunts a beautiful rose, a modest daisy saves the life of a sick woman, a cunning deceiver turns into a red poppy, the buds of tulips become houses for elves, a white chrysanthemum finds itself on the coat of arms of a noble family, and the most ordinary burdock arranges a marriage for a young man and woman in love.
In addition to classic translations, the fairy tales are accompanied by a splendid series of illustrations by masters of the floral genre, which will not only allow you to enjoy the beauty and splendor but also add bright strokes to create a truly fairy-tale flower mood.
