The Deluxe Illustrated Fairy Tales Book 1
Author: Mol Smith
There are many fairy tale books to buy, with most being cheaper than this one.
But they all suffer from a single undeniable weakness: they are old technology and design, more fit for
a past era before photography, television, cinema, and the X-box. The stories themselves may be old, often written
two hundred or more years ago, but the illustrations are always either pencil drawings or small watercolour art.
A child today grows up in a world of vivid colour and movement. Television, the internet, mobile phones, and the cinema
are the places your growing child will discover.
This book prepares them for that whilst relating the original fairy tales in large print that is easy for children to read by
themselves. You read them when the child is still learning to read, and they read them as their skills mature. Every story and every page is illustrated with art that is powerful, magical, and an accurate imagining of the stories in the text.
With cut-out A4 colour posters to remove (without ruining the book) and adorn your child's bedroom and an online website to visit and find out more about the stories and to look at or download additional free content, this is a complete gift for the child you love.
The illustrations were created using state-of-the-art techniques and tools by an author and artist with ten years of experience as a digital artist and twelve years as a motion picture creator as an act of love to modernise the illustrations that should accompany these wonderful and enduring stories of authors like Brothers Grimm, Charles Perrault, Hans Christian Andersen, and Gabrielle-Suzanne Barbot de Villeneuve (The Beauty and the Beast).
Some fairy tales are quite dark. Read the lighter ones to a younger child at first, and the darker ones as they grow a little older. You will enjoy revisiting these tales from your early years, too, and recall the magic that story-telling gives us all in the world.
