(3) 4-6 Pocket Paragon Book series. Translated by Thomas S. Hansen. Illustrated by Boris Pak. These two literary fairy tales feature two physically deformed protagonists who outwit sorceresses and capricious princes. Pak's paintings employ the black backgrounds and jewel-like colors of lacquered Russian boxes. Although the scholarly introduction is geared toward adults, the fables themselves will appeal to middle-grade readers who enjoy fantasy with a dark twist.
