A review by lisavegan
Dear Mili by Wilhelm Grimm

5.0

The illustrations are amazing. They’re so lush; I’ve never seen anything quite like them. I’m not the biggest Sendak fan but I love his illustrations in this book. The story is dark, grim, as are many Grimm stories. I wouldn’t recommend this one for most very young children unless first screened by their adults to determine its suitability, but the story was lovely in its own way. I enjoyed it. I’d thought I’d read this in about 1991 but it didn’t seem that familiar to me so I’m considering this my first reading.
