This was one of my favorite books as a child and I have been looking for another copy of it. It has beautiful illustrations-- they show visually that same dark magical quality as some Grimm's fairy tales do literally. I highly recommend this book.
Have been searching for this childhood favorite

My sister and I enjoyed this book as children and have been looking for it for a couple of months since our parents recently moved and it has been lost. The illustrations are incredible - really works of art in and of themselves! The story is classic and is a little above children of a young age (at times it's chilling) but together with the illustrations, it makes for one memorable book.
