Perrault's Fairy Tales: Illustrated

The book itself was great but the original story of Cinderella wasn't quite how I remembered it. I thought the sisters cut off parts of their feet to fit in the shoe, but that part wasn't in there.

The illustrations are magnificent! They alone are worth the price of the book. And, for those interested, they look great on a Kindle (I'm viewing them on a  Kindle DX ). The formatting for the Kindle is great.And the stories are good also. Well, okay, actually they're a bit horrific, like an old-fashioned, pre-Disney fairy tale ought to be. My favorite version of Cinderella is in this book. The writing style is deliciously old-fashioned but still easy to read and enjoy.If you are interested enough to be reading this review, then you definitely should get this book.

Amazing illustration ! My 10 years old son love it

The book has scary looking illustrations. Don’t buy it if you are buying this book for a small child.

Great illustrations. Always interesting to read the original versions of these stories ... definitely not a kids book. Spooky stuff.

A proofreader would have caught most typos and missing words ... but nonetheless, it was enjoyable, and Dore's art sublime.

While the pictures were nice, this book appears to be an accurate full translation of the French fairytales but really on the inside is just the shortened for children versions.

Beautiful illustrations, interesting fairy tails.

This book was bought as a present: I have not had any feed-back from the recipient
