Description

Book Synopsis

The classic fairy tale of the big adventures of a thumb-sized girl with vintage illustrations in an adorable mini edition with a cloth spine.

Thumbelina is so small she sleeps in a walnut shell bed with a violet petal mattress and rose petal sheet. One day, a toad takes her from her home and keeps her captive on a water-lily pad. Will Thumbelina ever find a new home where she belongs?

The picture books of Elsa Beskow, 'the Beatrix Potter of Sweden', have been known and loved for over a century. This mini gift edition faithfully reproduces Beskow's classic nostalgic illustrations at a size that is ideal for little hands.

Review Quotes
