Summary: the random house book of fairy tales
Review: From 35 year old mom of 6: I have read from many different fairy tale books over the years and this one is still my favorite. The reasons it is my favorite fairy tale book are: 1. It contains 19 of my favorite stories 2. Amy Ehrlich who wrote the stories, consulted several different versions, and retold them in their full splendor without dumbing the text down. 3. On every two page spread is a large detailed illustration by Diane Goode emmanating much warmth and charm.

Although the text is not dumbed down, this book still appeals to the 4-8 year old range because of the large picture to text ratio.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fairy Tale Book Response
Review: In the book The Random House book of Fairy Tales by alot of authors is the best fairy tale book that I have read in the world. The best Fairy tale in the book is The Emperer's new clothes. I picked this story because I thought that it was funny because the tailors played a trick on him and left him naked and the peasents thought it was the new fab. I reccomend this book to all the kids.

Review: The Random House book of Fairy Tales is a wonderful find for any parent. Compiled in it are nineteen well-known tales which have delighted the imaginations of generations of children; Sleeping Beauty, Rapunzel, Jack and the Beanstalk, Little Red Riding Hood, Cinderella, Hansel and Gretel, and The Princess and the Pea are all among the enchanting stories in this collection. Each story is brought to life with several illustrations, some black and white and others in color. Though the writing and illustrating seem a little amateur, they are well-suited for children, and should inspire many happy hours of reading.
