FOLKTALES AND NURSERY RHYMES
Grimm, Jacob , Grimm, Wilhelm

Hansel & Gretel

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Kvӗta Pacovská. An unusual presentation of the folktale, perhaps best for children already familiar with the story. The full version of the Grimms' tale is presented in a few text-heavy pages scattered throughout the volume's abstract artistic interpretations, including figurative scribbles of Hansel, Gretel, and the witch. Pacovská's graphically strong illustrations in bold colors, including metallic silver on glossy paper, are arresting.
