LEWIS, NAOMI AND EMMA CHICHESTER CLARK - Elf Hill: Tales from Hans Christian Andersen

Frances Lincoln. 2001. (ISBN: 9780711218307). Paperback, 10.9 x 8.4 x 0.3 inches. Paperback in good condition. 2001 1st paperback edition Frances Lincoln. Writer and Andersen authority Lewis (Hans Andersen's Fairy Tales) here gathers nine of the master's incomparable tales, ranging from the very familiar ("The Little Match Girl"; "The Princess and the Pea") to the virtually obscure ("Little Ida's Flowers"; "Elf Hill"). The manageable size of this anthology will encourage young readers to explore Andersen's magical world. Lewis wisely refrains from putting a personal stamp on her retellings; they mirror the originals nearly word for word. Clark (I Love You, Blue Kangaroo!), appropriately, gives herself free reign, and she takes a flight of fancy in paintings that are by turns vibrant and gently whimsical. From full-page scenes to tiny vignettes, she lightly captures all manner of creatures elves and trolls cavorting in the woods; and toys putting on human airs in the playroom. Established Andersen fans and neophytes alike will find something to treasure here.
