When a farmer, hunting food for his starving family, cannot bring himself to kill a beautiful swan, the magical bird rewards his kindness in an enchanting way. This description may be from another edition of this product.
I actually bought this for the watercolor illustrations (elegant in their simplicity and luminosity - I teach watercolor), but the story itself is also lovely. Looking forward to reading it to my future grandniece.
