Tales Told Again
This is a book of fairy tales. Some of them, like Cinderella and Little Red Riding Hood, you already know well, but as Walter de la Mare retells them, with sympathy and imagination, they seem as fresh and exciting as ever. And there are other stories, like Molly Whuppie, which will be less familiar. This book is ideal for children who are discovering fairy tales for the first time, but it will also make readers who are a year or two older return to them with renewed enjoyment.
Peacock Pie
Nobody knew better than Walter de la Mare how to make rhymes for children. He succeeded so well it is hard to tell where the difference lies between rhymes for the child and poems for the adult. This edition with Ardizzone's magically dreamy drawings is specially pleasing to children. Vissza
