A rich collection of well-known fairy tales, this magnificently illustrated hardcover volume will add a keepsake treasure to the family library. Thirty stories recount the adventures of Cinderella, Jack and the Beanstalk, The Three Bears, The Ugly Duckling, Aladdin, Little Red Riding Hood, Rumpel-stilts-kin, The Frog Prince, and many other beloved characters. Storytellers include Aesop, Charles Perrault, the Brothers Grimm, Hans Christian Andersen, and Robert Southey as well as anonymous sources. Golden Age pioneer Charles Robinson provides nearly 200 illustrations including 34 full-page images — 12 in full color, 16 in black and red, and 6 in black and white — in addition to scores of smaller line drawings.

Artist and engraver Charles Robinson (1870–1937) worked in the Arts and Crafts tradition and specialized in children's literature. A pioneer of modern book design, he was among the first to integrate drawings with text. Dover publishes his interpretation of A Child's Garden of Verses.
Walter Copeland Jerrold (1865–1929) edited many classics for Everyman's Library during the publisher's early years, and he wrote and edited many children's books.
