Fairy Tales


Another assorted mix of Folio Society books.  This blog has reminded me that I really have spent too much money on Folio books over the years!

There are a few fairy tales with beautiful illustrations.  Some of them are surprisingly violent considering you usually think of them as being for children.

The Dan Brown book is an illustrated version of the Davinci Code.  It is interesting to see illustrations of the paintings referred to in the story.  I know people look down on him a bit for being “popular” but he does write a gripping page turner.
