I love the old fairytales that are still around. The old stories are read and reread. It is a magical time in childhood that is always fresh in our minds. All some of the old favorites to your library.
Our Grandson Loves It!

My wife and I initially borrowed this book at our local library for our 4-year-old grandson. He loved it so much that we bought it for him. The illustrations are endlessly fascinating to him. I strongly recommend this book for young children (and their grandparents too!).

My daughter is six and she loves this book. Not too scary, but enough to keep her interest.
A good version of a traditional fairy tale

I read this book to my Pre-K class and they ask for it over and over again. The illustrations are good, kind of comical and scary at the same time. I enjoy reading this version because it stays true to the original language of the story :"Fee Fi Fo Fum, etc." You don't find this in every version.
Deliciously scary read-aloud!

Kellogg's traditional tale interpretations are among the best. His illustrations take on the old-time feel of classic tales and seem to magically glow, as they do in all his books. I read this book to my Kindergarten class and they ask for it again and again. It is great to see them cover their eyes and ears at the scary moments--they are frightened, but smiling from ear to ear.
