The Giant Golden Book of Elves and Fairies

(4) K-3 Illustrated by Garth Williams. The pleasant stories and poems in this oversize book are enlivened by Williams's detailed drawings. Some of the illustrations look like they've been computer-enhanced, and not very successfully; most likely the original art was hard to find. It's certainly not Williams's best work, but his elves and fairies are just as magical as they should be.
