A new generation of young readers will delight in these beloved Mother Goose tales accompanied by sparkling new color reproductions of the original b&w illustrations. Includes: The Golden Goose, The Three Bears, The Three Little Pigs, Tom Thumb.

Originally published in 1904, this volume contains four stories--"The Golden Goose," "The Three Bears," "The Three Little Pigs," and "Tom Thumb." Brooke's retellings follow the classic versions of these tales, and only an occasional archaic word or phrase betrays their nearly century-old origins. The illustrations, which include both black line drawings and full-color paintings, are a highlight. The paintings have been newly reproduced from the originals and printed on good-quality paper. Brooke's realistic animals and expressive faces seem to fairly jump off the page, and children will pore over the details of the art long after the stories are finished. Sure to delight a new generation of readers, this will make a handsome addition to any library.

The book includes a combination of colored and black&white illustrations by L. Leslie Brooke, a navigable table of contents, and a FREE audiobook link for download (use a PC/Mac to download and listen to audiobook file) that can be found at the end of the book.
