Snowdrop and Other Tales

Here is a bundle from the bag. The Christmas publishing season could not be complete without a Rackham book, and this year it is "Snowdrop and Other Tales," by the immortal Brothers Grimm. Never was an artist better suited with a subject; and the child who discovers the famous "Fairy Tales," or returns to them, will be doubly satisfied in that he or she will know just how the personages of the tale looked when they lived. The Brothers Grimm draw out all that is most excellent in Mr. Arthur Rackham's work; its imagination, ingenuity, energy and its beautiful draughtsmanship. Fortunately for the children they do not tire of the old classics, and the Brothers Grimm are still kings of the nursery with Mr. Rackham as their Grand Vizier, and long may they reign, for they bring faerydom and the Queen of Faery into our dull and anxious days. --The Bookman, Volume 59
