Maxfield Parrish: A Treasury: Of Art and Children's Literature

This new, revised and expanded edition of Alma Gilbert’s compilation of best known children’s fairy tales and poems has been gathered and retold by the author, who was an avid collector of fairy tales and children’s poems from the time she could read at the age of four. The book uses the paintings of Maxfield Parrish to capture the magic of each poem or story. These illustrations captivate all ages and audiences. This is a book which can be enjoyed by both children as they hear it read for the first time, as well as by adults while remembering the joy of reading these stories and poems in earlier years.
