FOLKTALES AND NURSERY RHYMES
Gustafson, Scott, Reteller

Classic Storybook Fables

(3) K-3 This old-fashioned collection of eight classic stories, including fairy tales, Aesop fables, and folktales, is pleasing but not groundbreaking. Gustafson retells the stories in a natural style with moderate emphasis on traditional ideals such as honesty, industry, creativity, and inner beauty. Expressive animal characters and a few pink-cheeked humans dominate Gustafson's glowing, luxuriantly detailed oil paintings on large-trim spreads.
