The fabled world of the fairies has long been a favorite haunt for Michael Hague. Now, in this sumptuously illustrated book, Hague presents a rich and varied collection of eight tantalizing tales and poems all about the legendary fair folk. Just take a look at these lush, fantastical paintings and you'll be transported to fairyland as you read about the brave little fairy of Hans Christian Andersen's beloved "Thumbelina," the cruel and clever goblins of Christina Rosetti's "Goblin Market," the clever, child-loving fairies of J. M. Barrie's "Lock-out Time," and many more. You and your children will find yourselves truly enchanted by these magical tales and mesmerizing illustrations. Overflowing with 20 full-page and 8 double-page full-color paintings and 24 black-and-white drawings, this glimpse at a magical world is an ideal showcase for Michael Hague's art. A companion to Hague's The Book of Dragons.
