A review by elliemcc11
The Lion Book of Fairy Tales by Julia Stone

3.0

Thanks to the publisher and Netgalley for this review copy.

I sat with my 2 and a half year old and we read some of these stories together. The stories mix the better known like Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, The Three Little Pigs etc, with the less well known like Clever Rabbit (a rabbit who arranges a tug of war with a whale and an elephant) and Hare is Scared (Hare is scared and scares the other animals but it's just a mango falling).

My daughter liked the illustrations and I thought they were nicely drawn and engaging. I think it would make a nice gift for a child, perhaps for a Christening / Baptism or First Birthday.
