Old favourites such as "Cinderella" and "Jack and the Beanstalk" are presented alongside some less well-known stories such as "The Fisherman and his Wife" and "Diamonds and Toads". Mary Hoffman's charming retellings use simple lyrical language ideal for reading aloud while Julie Downing's illustrations bring the characters to life. The stories in this collection show the consequences of greed pride and vanity but also tell of the love that grows from a kind heart and a cheerful nature. Along the way there is a wealth of magic and fun to be enjoyed!
