Who doesn’t love to read fairy tales? Ask a five-year-old and he/she will also repeat the story of his/her favourite tales. Put a well illustrated book in front of a child who is still not able to read, but will recognise and tell you the names of the characters from the tales that have been read to him/her as bedtime stories. That is the charm of fairy tales; they draw young children towards the pleasure of reading.
But fairy tales are not meant only for five-year-olds. Even grown ups love to read them and relive their childhood fantasies.
Disney’s Princess Collection: Love and friendship stories is one such collection that is sure to keep the young and not so young engrossed for a long time. The book contains 19 children’s favourite stories like Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Beauty and the Beast, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, The Lion King, Tarzan, etc. in easy-to-read form. All these stories have been read by children with interest and movies based on them are repeatedly viewed by children throughout the world.
Though the stories are not complete and only portions (though the most interesting ones) of the whole story are included in the book, yet it makes the complete story come alive. The brevity of the story also makes it easier for the child to read without losing his/her interest or for the parents to read aloud as bedtime story.
Beautiful illustrations on every page add to the charm of the book.
The book is a must-have for your collection as well as a precious gift for young children who will cherish it for a long time.
