Where the rest of the book is well printed, with sharp text, 4/c watercolor illustrations, and applied ivory page tints, the empty pages were stark white -- forgotten page files? Highly recommend! Most of these were new to me but they are fun to read and can be enjoyed by all. Sadly I opened the box and was so upset that the book was damaged.

Different folklore tales. Nice book but corners look like someone dropped it and page's look warped from moisture but everything else looks good Comes with a bookmark in book.

Beautiful book with gorgeous illustrations and full of wonderful stories about knights and princesses and giants and trolls and witches and dragons and all the good stuff you would expect from your favorite folk tales. I was super excited for this to come on. Thank you! The chapter also tell you which countries the tales are from.
Honest but fair
Excellent book, but was saddened to see the cover had been cut into. What a lovely book, amazing graphic, printed on a heavy paper, wonderful gift for any folktales lover. In an otherwise lovely book, several spreads were blank in the print imposition: 78-79, 82-83, 86-87, 90-91.

I just read it prior to giving it as a gift and I am positive my niece is going to love it. Might want to check the inventory of this press run, delivered on July 15.
