An ancient tale of popular European tradition, later rewritten by both Perrault and the Grimm Brothers, is here offered in a beautifully illustrated book to the delight of young readers. Agnese Baruzzi, a talented and creative book illustrator, has created this book by carving the paper in some pages, which can be moved and turned over traditional drawings, to convey an effect of movement like a proper theatre scene. The tale will be more engaging and interesting, stimulating the children to rediscover a timeless fairy tale classic.
