Journey through the seasons and celebrations of a child's year in this stunning collection of fairy tales from the bestselling, award-winning author of The House with Chicken Legs, Sophie Anderson.
With a fairy tale for every month of the year, this collection is brimming with magic and extraordinary adventure. The stories are all inspired by fairy tales that have been passed down for generations - some are twists on classics, such as Jack and the Beanstalk and Rapunzel, while others are original stories inspired by folklore, such as The Bear and the Dragon and The Sleeping Forest.
Packed with colourful illustrations by Elisa Paganelli, this gorgeous gift book brings Sophie's lyrical storytelling to life.
