Review
'This is a very pretty illustrated version of the tale.' -- Catherine Coyne, Youth Services Book Review 'Beskow's full-page illustrations with closely drawn natural life and delicate colouring create an atmosphere that perfectly matches Thumbelina's fluctuation between melancholy and excitement.' --Gillian Lathey, SLA 'This particular retelling is lovely in its simplicity and accompanied by gorgeous illustrations from Elsa Beskow. Young readers will love the beautiful pictures depicting tiny Thumbelina and the many creatures she encounters. They'll wonder at how she finds herself almost married to so many unappealing creatures, and they'll cheer every time she manages to become free again. This is a great version of a classic tale.' -- San Francisco Book Review '... this particular retelling is lovely in its simplicity and accompanied by gorgeous illustrations from Elsa Beskow.
