Feathers, Paws, Fins, and Claws

Fairy-Tale Beasts

Most folk and fairy tales, legends, and fables descend from an oral tradition of storytelling, with borrowed themes and characters reworked through the years. This collection of ten stories for kids and adults fixates on the unique, often comical ways that beasts have appeared in fairy tales from around the world. Following a short introduction and an original, extraordinary illustration by Belgian artist Lina Kusaite, each tale appears exactly as it did when first published.
