About the Author
Charles Perrault (1628–1703) is widely recognized as the father of the fairy tale. A member of the Académie Française, he created the genre by adapting stories from classic folk tales. His works include Sleeping Beauty, Blue Beard, Puss in Boots, Little Tom Thumb, and The Tales of Mother Goose. He was born and died in Paris.
Best-known for the best seller Everything I Need to Know I Learned from Led Zeppelin, independent publisher Laughing Elephant Books crafts books that are tactile, pleasing, and often surprising.Laughing Elephant specializes in children’s classics, pop culture, food and drink, and innovative gift books, with a mission to bring classic art and vintage images to new life and to inspire, enrich, and bring joy. Laughing Elephant was founded in 1992 by Harold and Sandra Darling, founders of legendary publisher Green Tiger Press and creators of the best selling Good Dog Carl children’s books. Benjamin Darling acquired the company in 2020. Laughing Elephant Books is based in San Diego, CA.
John Hassall (l868-l948), was a watercolorist, designer and illustrator. He studied art in Antwerp and Paris under P. Van Havermaet and William-Adolphe Bougereau. Hassall was a versatile designer: his work includes cartoons, theatre posters, commercial posters, greeting cards, books, and nursery rhymes. His work is influenced by the flat colors and two-dimensional qualities of Japanese prints. He was elected to the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours in 1901. He died in Kensington, London.
