Children's Classics

This charming series retells classic fairy tales with bright illustrations and a clever tone. The stories in the Little Pebbles series have been adapted for children today while respecting the richness and flavor of the original versions. The small size of the books and their warm, inviting illustrations will appeal to children. In addition, children will love the game page at the end of each book, and they will want to read all the books in the series. An enterprising cat -- with only a bag, a pair of boots, and some audacity -- arranges for his owner, a poor farmer, to marry a princess and live happily ever after.
