Publisher Notes

In his illustrations for this rich and varied collection, a companion to THE BOOK OF DRAGONS, Michael Hague, one of America's most beloved painters of fantasy, creates a fabled work that belongs to the fairies. There is the lost flower-fairy Thumbelina, the cruel and clever goblins of Christina Rossetti's GOBLIN MARKET, and the invisible creatures of James Barrie's LOCK-OUT TIME. Readers will also meet a helpful brownie girl with an unlucky name, and two elves who act like playground bullies, as they read these delightful works and savor the mesmerizing full-color and black-and-white illustrations.
