the complete tales... January 7, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I find this book very well written to be appreciated by all ages. Each story contains a few pictures, and a concluding moral. Anyone who loves fairytales would find this book a pleasure to read...
Remember this is book is geared for 9-12 yr olds November 22, 2006 9 out of 12 found this review helpful
It was my fault I did not pay attention to the reader age group 9-12yrs. I thought this book would have more details in the stories such as in the real Cinderella it mentions that the evil step sister had to cut parts of their feet to fit into the glass slipper, the prince notices the blood and then asked Cinderella the chamber maid to try on the slipper. This is never mentioned in this version. Of course I understand this is geared for children, and I was looking for the adult, true translation, version. The same for the Bluebeard story, looks like I will be returning my copy. Hopefully a younger person can find some use for this book.

Wonderful Charles Perrault August 13, 2005 5 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is a complete collection of the fairy tales collected by Charles Perrault, the heart and soul of European fairy tales. Beautiful illustrations, easy to read text, highly recommended. These are original versions, without the Disney "variations."
A KEEPSAKE FOR A YOUNG READER'S LIBRARY May 4, 2005 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Who can resist a fairy tale? This beautifully rendered edition includes such timeless classics as "Little Red Riding Hood," "Cinderella" and "Sleeping Beauty."
All eleven of Perault's tales are enchantingly illustrated in ripe watercolors - never has Red Riding Hood's grandmother's cottage looked so venerably aged or forbidding.
A handsome volume to be treasured.
