A. Lake said Great Stories and Enchanting Artwork. This book is a collection of some of the best Russian folktales. The Tzar anf Koshka the Cat introduce such timeless tales as Sadko and the Sea Kings Daughter, the Snowmaiden and The Firebird. There are lavish illustrations on every page and the costumes are historically accurate! A treasure!. "Marvelous storytelling" according to Crystal Marie. This book is such a treasure. It's unique in that it has beautiful illustrations on each page but also compelling and elaborate storytelling. It entertains the young and old in our house alike!. Five Stars LOVED IT, THANKS!
