A propos du livre

Revue de presse

'A wonderful colourful first book of traditional tales, this volume makes for entertaining bedtime reading. Stella Blackstone has captured the essence of many well-known stories such as The Gingerbread Man and Three Little Pigs. Our tester's favourite was Stone Soup, a tale of friendship and feasting. Anne Wilson's illustrations are warm and captivating, drawing the reader abd the listener into each picture.' - The Green Parent --The Green Parent. 'A perfect collection of stories for pre-school children to share and devour with parents from The Ugly Duckling and The Gingerbread Man to The Timid Hare and The Three Little Pigs to name just four. Wonderfully vibrant illustrations will have all children hooting with laughter. Slightly older children will also relish the opportunity of reading this delightful collection on their own.' -LoveReading4Kids ---LoveReading4Kids. 'All the stories are a perfect length for reading aloud to toddlers before bedtime, and the language is perfect too. The illustrations are bright and bold, and as all of the stories feature animals, they appeal massively to young children.' - FamiliesOnline.co.uk - --FamiliesOnline.co.uk

Biographie de l'auteur

On good days, Stella Blackstone lives east of the sun and west of the moon. On less good days, she lives at the bottom of a well. She finds ideas in all of these places and turns them into songs, poems and rhymes. She has read and written poetry for as long as she can remember, and her favourite books include Louis Untermeyer?s A Child's Treasury of Poetry, which was a constant companion throughout her childhood, Paolo Coelho's The Alchemist, everything by T.S. Eliot, and William Buck's translation of The Ramayana. She lives in southwest England, and enjoys walking and working in her garden as well as doing nothing whenever she has the chance. Anne has an MA in Illustration from St. Martin's College of Art, London. She has been illustrating children's books for several years, and this is her first project with Barefoot Books. She gains much of her inspiration and use of colour from her travels. Anne lives in Reading, England and has two children.
