Description

Beloved Swedish author--illustrator Elsa Beskow's charming vintage illustrations bring to life this classic Hans Christian Andersen tale of a thumb-sized girl who has big adventures.

Thumbelina is so small she sleeps in a walnut shell bed with a violet petal mattress and rose petal sheet.

One day, a toad takes her from her home and keeps her captive on a water-lily pad, until some fish set her free.

Thumbelina makes her way through the countryside, where she meets May bugs, butterflies, a field mouse and a swallow. Will Thumbelina ever find a new home among friends?Elsa Beskow's signature illustrations have been known and loved for over a century.

This wonderful mini gift edition of Thumbelina faithfully reproduces Beskow's classic nostalgic illustrations in an adorable small format -- ideal for little hands.
