I tend to stick with some of the older books because the illustrations and stories are better.Reginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17572248151815929378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15639962.post-17586759667812215242009-01-29T15:56:00.000-05:002009-01-29T15:56:00.000-05:00My introduction to the Roberts was with their rete...My introduction to the Roberts was with their retelling for Cinderella: http://www.amazon.com/Cinderella-Art-Deco-Love-Story/dp/1843650134/ref=reg_hu-wl_mrai-recs. This was given to me way before I had children, and it has become one of my daughters favorite books.

We really love it. The illustrations are just fantastic. I disagree with you a little about the value of old tales though.I think there wouldn't be the new interpretations without them if you know what I mean?Kristyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00594821266695081190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15639962.post-54245208036568008462009-01-28T09:29:00.000-05:002009-01-28T09:29:00.000-05:00Hi,Since buying a pattern from you, which by the w...Hi,<BR/>Since buying a pattern from you, which by the way I used twice and came out beautifully and so professional!!, I have been reading your blog. I have a book recommendation, Olivier Dunrea's book called Hanne's Quest. The illustrations are beautiful. It is a chapter book, so maybe too old for your daughter, I just read it with mine who is 5 and she loved it. It is about a chicken who must go on a quest to seek 9 magical seeds to allow her to lay golden eggs to save the farm on which she lives. It is a wonderful story. Mr Dunrea has written other books which are quite good, Petie and Gossie series, and another which we love about a baby in the snow with gorgeous illustrations.
