Description

The Fairy Book - The Best Popular Fairy Stories was originally published in 1913. It is a collection of classic children's tales, compiled and edited by Dinah Craik, and illustrated by Warwick Goble. In the words of the author, it is intended as 'the best collection attainable of that delight of all children, and of many grown people who retain the child-heart still - the old-fashioned, time-honoured classic Fairy Tale. It includes the narratives of 'Sleeping Beauty', 'Cinderella', 'Beauty and the Beast', 'Tom Thumb', 'Rumpelstiltskin', 'Snow White', 'Jack and the Beanstalk' and many more. Warwick Goble (1862 - 1943) was an illustrator of children's books, who specialised in Japanese and Indian themes. The son of a commercial traveller, he was educated at the Westminster School of art, and specialised in chromolithographic printing. His work is delicate in its colouring, and masterful in its presentation of line and form. Some of Goble's best known works include illustrations for Charles Kingsley's The Water Babies, Robert Louis Stevenson's Treasure Island, and H. G. Wells's The War of the Worlds. Pook Press celebrates the great 'Golden Age of Illustration' in children's literature - a period of unparalleled excellence in book illustration from the 1880s to the 1930s. Our collection showcases classic fairy tales, children's stories, and the work of some of the most celebrated artists, illustrators and authors.
