The Diamond Fairy Book (Illustrated) is a collection of 19 fairytales from a variety of traditions, including: German; Swedish; Breton; French; English; and Persian. Papé's illustrations for The Diamond Fairy Book are lovely interpretations of this amazing array of fairy tales from many lands.
"A volume of great variety and charm. Above all the limitations of children have been remembered, and whilst we have striking scenes and characters, the little people are not over-weighted with ethics of metaphysics. The form of the book is most artistic for a Fairy book"
