Usborne GB Illustrated Grimm's Fairy Tales

It's for kids, so expected more colourful pictures/ illustrations

Illustrations are very scarce. This is more a read along book. Would recommend the other illustrated versions in this series. Returning

It’s a beautiful book. I wanted to keep it for myself but didn’t

Great purchase nice fairy tales with lovely illustrations only £10 well worth it !!

Früher habe ich immer gerne mal Romane in anderen Sprachen gelesen. Nach vielen Jahren zuhause als "Mutti" wollte ich mal meine Sprachkenntnisse überprüfen und gleichzeitig dem Sohnemann etwas Abwechslung für verschiedene Ausdrücke im Englischunterricht bieten. Dieses Buch ist superleicht verständlich, wenn man mal ein Wort nicht weiß wird gegoogelt und tatsächlich konnte ich dem Sohn so mal andere Vorschläge machen, da ja in den Märchen auch viel gesprochen wird. Er kann nun auch mal etwas anderes schreiben als:....."he says" ;-)Die Aufmachung an sich ist auch sehr schön, gebunden mit hübschen Illustrationen, absolut sein Geld wert. Ich denke, da werde ich noch weitere von kaufen.

Lo amo!!! L’ho comprato per le mie nipotine che stano studiando inglese. Il libro è veramente carino. Quasi quasi lo compro anche per me.Aggiornamento 3 mesi dopo, l’ho comprato anche per me!

It was by accident that I stumbled upon the Usborne Illustrated Books Collection, and - by Joe! - was I glad! It is a beautifully illustrated book; though, you will do well to remember that illustrations are not available on every single page. If you want a book, which contains illustrations on "every single page", go for the Usborne Illustrated Fairy Tales, which is meant for slightly younger readers.Coming back to the book, the pages are gorgeously glossy and think and the paperback looks beautiful and exquisite too (although I ordered another in the series in the Hardback, which was divine). Of course, hardbounds are more expensive, hence if you are sensitive to price, go for the paperback version...you won't be disappointed. In fact, I have ordered more in the series and planning to start my very own Usborne collection. I so wish I had these books to read when I was a kid myself. Alas! It's never too late...
