Seven heartwarming fairy tales that celebrate families in all shapes and sizes, as well as the power of friendship.
These seven beautifully-illustrated fairy tales show how love makes a family, and explore the true meaning of friendship. From the freedom that comes with a family's acceptance in 'Land and Sea', to the power of friendship in 'The Beekeeper and the Hare' and the bonds of sisterly love in 'Goblin Market'. This collection brings to life some of the most important parts of childhood with tenderness, beauty and a timeless magic.
