Recensioner i media

I love discovering old stories, so this forgotten Treasury is right up my street. It's a beautifully illustrated collection and perfect for a quiet moment with my little ones. It would also make a lovely gift. My favourite story in the collection is Goblin Market, filled with all the best elements of a fairytale and the strong bond between sisters.
