by Michael Foreman (Author)
A selection of fairy tales from around the world by the award-winning illustrator of children's books who drew inspiration from writers such as Hans Christian Anderson, the Brothers Grimm and Oscar Wilde. Michael Foreman has cast his net wide around the mythologies and folklores of Africa, China, India, Ireland and New Zealand to gather his favourite tales and has travelled thousands of miles to capture the particular magic that belongs to each of these cultures. Some of the paintings are the result of earlier collaborations with celebrated contemporary writers such as Madhur Jaffrey, Edna O'Brien and terry Jones.
