Publisher's Synopsis
First published in 1917, Little Brother & Little Sister is a mix of forty well known and less known Grimm fairy tales, including "Snow-White and Rose-Red," "The Cunning Little Tailor," "The Young Giant," and many more, all selected by the illustrator, Arthur Rackham. The deep forest settings of many of these German stories, based upon folklore, harmonize beautifully with Rackham's beautiful and intricate black-and-white drawings, fifty-five altogether, which depict gnomes, trolls, giants, mischievous fairies, animals that talk, and trees with more personality than people. This wonderful collection will become a favorite treasure of any child who loves to read.
