Pictures by Maud and Miska Petersham

• Published by Garden City, New York: Doubleday, Doran & Company, Inc., 1936.

• This is a phenomenal collection of stories. There are many familiar motifs, but Post Wheeler writes with a style and flair that is missing in so many other storytellers. Many collections of fairy tales are full of both good and bad, the gems and the throw-aways. Wheeler includes ten densely-packed stories, not a weak one among them. They are not meant for children only - they are meant to be read and appreciated by everyone. The award-winning illustrators Maud and Miska Petersham share the author's enthusiasm for these ancient tales by creating illustrations that are rich in tradition and represent the folk quality of the tales themselves.
