Review title: Beautifully illustrated, but some surprising additions
Product review: This is a very beautiful book indeed, and the vast majority of the stories included are great. Classics like Sleeping Beauty and Little Red Riding Hood are required reading for cultural literacy (not to mention just plain fun). The poetry and tall tales are good as well.I was surprised at the excerpts from larger books that were included. Selections of Peter Pan, Alice in Wonderland, The Nutcracker, and especially The Wind in the Willows were not favorites at our house. The reader is just thrown in the middle of these stories with no context as to who the characters are or what has happened before in the story. We will be skipping these selections in the future.Another surprising inclusion was a mention of children being born out of wedlock to Rapunzel, but not everyone would be surprised or offended by that.Over all, a good addition to our family's library with judicious reading on our part.
