Customer Review: Flower Fables
This was the most enchanting book I think that I have ever read. Such beautiful illustrations.
Customer Review: A beautifully illustrated compilation of fables.
This discovery of unpublished fables by Louisa May Alcott should be read by children during their important impressionable years. The illustrations are beautiful and complimentary to the text. While classics of Louisa May Alcott, Little Women and Little Men, are for the early teens, these fables for the preteens tease the imagination in a magical way. This sort of alternative to the upbringing of children by the video media is sorely needed and provided by Flower Fables.
