1 2 3: A Child's First Counting Book

(3) PS A young girl falls asleep and embarks upon a dreamy journey from one to ten and back. The illustration accompanying each number shows a specific fairy tale, some familiar ("The Three Little Pigs"), some not ("The Red Shoes"). The concept is well executed; the book's energy lies in its illustrations, notable for their elongated curves and broad-ranging palette.
