Customer Reviews

Not a Disney Fairy Tale Book

I received this book when I was eight and have hauled it around with me for the last 33 years. These are fairy tales that have meat you can discuss with your children and lack the sugary frosted Disney always happy endings that my children get from the current revisions of the stories. As my copy is beginning to weaken at the bindings due to much use I truly wish I could get a reprint so that not only my children but my grandchildren could read it.

EUROPEAN AND AMERICAN DOLLS

This ISBN is actually a book which explores the history, the makers, and various types of dolls, covering a time span from medieval Nurnberg to the period just before World War I. Concentrating on the 19th Century, Gwen White researched the origins of dolls, their patents, makers, dates, and more. This reference book includes illustrations, drawing, technical details, and photographs.

My favorite book as a child

My mother gave me this book when I was little, 1976. I read it over and over again. I recently gave my copy to my daughter. I know she will love it as much as I did. This is the best fairy tale book I have ever read. The author does a wonderful job of retelling these timeless stories.

An excellent collection of favorite and rarely-told tales.

I was given this book in 1975 as a gift. I have always cherished it as one of my favorite books. The author tells the tales in an intruiging manner and has re-told many fairy tales that I never knew existed. For this, I am an avid fan of this book!
