About This Item
London, United Kingdom: Everyman's Library, 1996. Book. Illus. by Robinson, W.Heath (illustrator). As New. Decorative Cloth. First Thus. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall. First thus. Decorative red cloth with decorated endpapers, black and white pastedown by Heath. New condition, gift quality. In 1697, Charles Perrault published a collection of eight fairytales that became a founding work in children's literature. "Puss in Boots," "Little Tom Thumb," "Cinderella," "Little Red Riding Hood," and "Blue Beard" first appeared here, as well as "The Sleeping Beauty in the Wood," which contains a considerably more bizarre ending than the version popular in English. This translation by A.E. Johnson was published in 1921 with the amusing and elegant drawings of W. Heath Robinson. The books in this outstanding series of classic children's literature are of unusually high quality, with acid-free paper and full-cloth sewn bindings for long life. They look costly, with linen covers, gold stamped spines, and silk ribbon markers, yet are surprisingly inexpensive..
